I've seen the pukes snatch victory from the jaws of Diebold before, I refuse to believe anything until 100% of the precincts report and Kilgore concedes and blows his brains out. THEN, I'll believe! ;)
:party: Maybe.

I have a sensitive stomach!

:kick:

yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Must have been too big of a margin to steal.

See Skinner's post 1!!!!

:thumbsup:

says so. (I am hoping).

Wait for AP to declare a winner then BUZZ ZIP WHIRR....votes get flipped, additional votes get cast and viola, the puke wins.

Now I can go to bed VERY content.

(If this holds up, please please please please please ... )

:woohoo:

Tammy

which would be 2 losses for dems.

So at the moment, all we've done is keep the gov. seat.

Ok there Debbie Downer.

Any more bad news before the party starts?

:eyes:

I went to vote after work today, and I had every finger and toe crossed for Kaine to pull it off..and he did :bounce: :bounce::bounce:

Well, maybe 99%.:)

:woohoo:

if you go into their headline story Democrats lead in Va., N.J. governors' races

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051109/ap_on_el_ge/elections_rdp

NBC-29 in Charlottesville just had a live report from Kilgore HQ in Richmond, and the reporter noted that "things got real quiet a moment ago when the AP news flashed on the screen, and now there are people forming prayer circles. I think we can imagine why."

So, a moment of respectful silence, please.

Thanks. And now.... BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!!! YIPEEEEEE!!!

when everyone in the War Room thought that the nuclear crisis was over. George C.Scott's character leads the room in prayer: "Lord, we have seen the Angel of Death, and emerged triumphant..." Then the news comes in that there's still one American jet ready to launch a bomb.

I'll wait until all the precicts are counted before feeling safe with a Kaine victory.

save your ass, Repubs. :rofl:

I knew it would.

:toast: :kick: :popcorn:

Congrats to the Virginia Dems tonight. :thumbsup:

:toast:

And, they are damn right, it is a sign of things to come a year from now!

Dem leading in New Jersey as reported by Yahoo.

Very nice!

Hurray!

I'd head down to the C&O for a victory bottle
and dance the length of the Downtown Mall
but were getting pounded by a thunderstorm

Subject:Party
When: All Weekend
Where: Virginia

You are invited

I'm going to give 75% of my office a well deserved
"Told Ya So" tomorrow.

Kilgore had been catching up in the polls (I believe one recent single-day poll had him even with Kaine). Then Dumbya (without a clue as to how unpopular he is) came to Virginia to help Kilgore out. That cinched it for Kaine.

God, that sounds good:

DEMOCRATIC VICTORY

:kick:

A Democratic victory.

We are going to be saying it again and again all the way through the midterms on up through 2008 when we take back the WH. We are the UPSWING.

DEMOCRATIC VICTORY

:bounce:

Bush said something like, he likes Kilgore because he grew up on a farm and doesn't have fancy airs.

You know, because Bush grew up in CONNECTICUT as the son of rich parents, so I trust him on that. :eyes:

I finally feel like a vote I cast mattered.

however the one bit of bad news is that the Lt. Gov and AG candidates are losing.

Kilgore. Talk about a kiss of death. No way they can spin it positive for numbnuts.

Deeds is down by less than 1 percent right now. Hopefully he can come back.

Family in VA are so excited, too, that is in between cursing Repuks/BushCo.

Ya-Hoo! :applause:

:toast: :party: :toast: :party:

As a Tennessean conceived in Virginia!

It's my home away from home!!!


:bounce:

the morning?

:loveya:

*Democrats and moderate Republicans in Virginia take collective bow*

We will lead the way here in The Old Dominion in returning the South to Mr. Jefferson's party!

:kick:

What in the world took us so doggone long? :shrug:

That would be great! Next we have to take back Georgia!

I'll Volunteer to have The Old Dominion usher it into Tennessee!!

We'll certainly do our best for the good folks in The Volunteer State.

:D

:party: :toast: :bounce: :hi: :kick: :headbang: :woohoo: :applause: :patriot:

:bounce:

I'm here in the Florida Keys on my boat jumping up and down, and all the other people sitting out on their boats don't have a clue why this is so exciting...

Oh well! :applause:

We aren't all repugs or dixiecrats. Congratulations from Georgia.

We're celebrating here in VA tonight. We're soundly taking back our state from the reactionaries, and after four years of watching the Democrats lose, it's nice to have a victory like this.

Drinks are on me! Well... maybe 50/50.

How sweet it is!!

GREAT JOB GUYS!! We wrapped up great here in NJ and great to see Kaine with a REALLY GOOD margin of victory! HATS OFF TO VA AND NJ!!!

the Christian Coalition candidate for AG is winning.

Channel 8 is showing both in the LEAD now with over 90% of precincts reporting!

Deeds has about 10K more votes than McDonall.

Byrne has 15K over Bolling.

We had some machine malfunctions at my precinct which delayed our reporting, but Kaine won it by a good margin. This precinct was split almost even in the presidential race last year. Turn out was heavy. I think the negative Kilgore ads had an effect. They made people mad enough to turn out against him.

I hope the votes get counted for Creigh Deeds. The race is still too close to call.

Next year, we all turn out against George Allen. It is time for that bigot to go.

---snip---

Both gubernational races were exceptionally nasty.

A Forrester ad quoted Corzine's ex-wife as saying, "Jon did let his family down, and he'll probably let New Jersey down, too." A Corzine ad featured a paralyzed teenager complaining about Forrester's stance against stem cell research.

A Kilgore ad alleged that Kaine's opposition to the death penalty meant he would not have executed Adolf Hitler. Kaine cites his Roman Catholic beliefs for his opposition to capital punishment, but insisted he would carry out death sentences because they are the law.

---snip---

Lets see, accusing a man of letting down his family (personal attack) vs. Using a paralyzed individual to talk about the challenger's stance on stem-cell research (attack on policy/action, not person).

Oh, and accusing someone of not executing Hitler (just plain fuzzy logic as well as a veiled personal attack) vs. talking about how one would carry out the state's laws, despite personal, religious beliefs (actually states what he WOULD do).

I'd say the Republicans lose in the personal attacks department, not the Dems. But don't tell the media that. They are real busy spinning this like the Pre$$titutes they are. :puke:

By the way, Virginia? You rock! Nice job today!

I'm so happy that we retained the governor's seat in Virginia. Hopefully we can turn Virginia blue in 2008! Congrats to all the Virginians!
