yeah because the diehard supporter who waits around all night long outside at a rally is a true sample of the party.

bad night for the gays - bans on gay marriage passed in FL, AZ, CA (wtf?) and gay couples can't legally adopt children in AR... not that any sane gay couple would ever want to live in Arkansas anyway.

I'd be more worried about Joe Biden at this point. He's a Zionist fucknut with McCain-friendly plans.

But that really opens the door for Palin to take his seat (McCain won AK easily 62% to 36%), giving her another feather in the hat for a 2012 run.
That is scary.

indeed. this wasn't a move away from imperialism, it was simply a move to basic competence at imperialism.

Looks like Al Franken has as good lead here so far. However, very little of rural vote have been counted.

Unfortunately, Michelle Bachman (i.e MN's Sarah Palin, Ms. "Investigate Anti-americanism in congress") also seems to have a good lead for her reelection. :disgust:
:facepalm:
Sounds like the AP called it for Coleman, but Franken isn't conceding since there are only 600 votes separating them, which means a mandatory recount.

Still hope?

Lol, it really was pretty bad. Did you see that british BBC reporter interviewing a republican and getting ripped a new one by the republican who said that he doesn't know his history about colorado. Then the former ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, (right miserable twat), saying to david dimbleby how that reporter should be fired for not knowing his facts and getting into an argument instead of a proper interview. Very bitter republicans, lol.

I'm not sure but given the indignation of Germany towards America and the blunt way Europeans speak about "the Bush years" I have no reason to doubt it.

impressive how they make it sound all techie when it's basically a blue screen with a shitty alpha filter to boot. I know that the blue outline was probably put there on purpose but it looks shit.

That's not what Elections Canada says. Citizenship is required to vote in Canada.
