I was told on Sunday that Warner would win by 10. Would you say Gillespie covered?

The last votes to come in up there come from Northern Virginia aka suburban DC. Warner’s lead will only increase.

If it close, the cheating margin will go with the Dems. If they couldn’t cheat, lie or steal, they wouldn’t win ANYTHING!

If Warner stays below 50 percent will there be a runoff?

VA Republicans need to do two things:
(1)Demand a recount. I want a paper ballot and a fingerprint from every last one of the VA electorate.
(2) Go over to the home of the Third Party MF and burn it down, after beating the shiite out of the Democrat shill/troll/spy/infiltrator/traitor.

New Hampshire: Hope this is the last we see of Brown. If this RINO SOB couldn't beat the fake squaw in Massholia, or the hysterical, nonsensical lesbo/abortionist in NH, it's time for him to seek non-public sector employment. Seeya. Perhaps he could open a concession service. He sure as hell has enough experience.

FL: Not even massive double-dip vote cheating did it for Gay Charlie. Not even all of Trayvon's cousins driving from one precinct to another, AFTER voting absentee, early, and often, could put him over.* I take back everything (well, a lot, anyway) I ever said about Floridiots being like really stupid. Apparently only a bit less than half are truly hopeless..

Gay Charlie began as a Republican, became independent, then became Democrat. I have it on very good authority that he will now run next time as a Green Woman.

Frankly, I didn’t think it would be close at all. Gillespie didn’t spend any time at all here in Loudoun. And Fairfax is known to hold their counts until late, maybe so they know how much the Rat needs to win. At least Comstock held Frank Wolf’s seat. And while I’m sorry Ed may lose, there is the sweet knowledge that Dingy Harry has to sit down and shut up. That’s worth the price of admission all by itself.

I’m just glad we are upset over a race that very few even had on the radar coming into the night.

Forget the recount. The problem is illegal votes. A recount will only count these votes again.

This from April:

Over 40,000 voters are registered in both Virginia and Maryland, group finds

Sadly, the Virginia GOP simply doesn't care. They know this has been going on for quite some time, yet they do nothing to stop it.

Thanks to the libertarian asshole who sucked off 50,000 odd votes, most of which would likely have gone to Gillespie.

I’ve said repeatedly that I wasn’t going to get too exited before the Election. Too many disappointments in the past.

That being said, my expectations have been exceeded.
It’s 2010 all over again. Hip, hip, hooray!

I wonder if this means that people have finally woken up from their Libola induced Stupor?

The Virginia GOP needs to check on all of the voter registrations.

Also, all the GOPe clowns (I’m looking at you John Warner, Chichester, et al.) need to shut up and sit down. You may have cost us a seat.
