The way the MSM is playing it, you'd think that Obama and Schumer were the Presidential candidates. It's the only thing they can see that's good from this election.
and it is not even news that these men got re-elected, they were shoo-ins... the news was SC, NC, LA, OK, and FL. All NEW GOP SENATORS.
... and CO which was a loss for the GOP.
... and SD Thune beating Daschle.
Schumer's win is not news. $12 million vs an unknown can produce such results. Look at Utah or Brownback in Kansas or other incumbent GOP senators who breezed to re-election.
