""Right, in Paris probably proposing to Kagen as the next future ex-Mrs. Limbaugh.""
Woudl that make 4?
And Rome, and Venice...sounds like a nice trip!
Cheney told him to have a good time in FRance(Rush laughed) in a radio interview just b4 he left town, I wonder????
Is it really that close?
The DUmmies will be spinning like tops, once again getting the wrong message, LOL.
What percentage of the votes are in?
That is one of the reasons I am posting each update.. NO SPIN
It appears the DUmmies are pinning all their hopes on Hackett. Get ready for the pissed off threads if he loses.
It looks like a 5% margin for Schmidt, as an early guess. She is winning the GOP strongholds in the early vote of Warren and Clemont by about 10%, winning by about 5% in Hamilton with a few votes, and was slaughtered in Brown, losing by 14%, which means she will be slaughtered in all the rural counties (which don't have many votes, except for Scioto which has more, and is the most Dem (Schmidt might lose there by 20%). This is all very early guesses.
Preseason football counts for the marginal players. That's my point -- of course it matters for the candidates and us in the District, but nationally it's meaningless. Win or lose, the 'Rats still are out of power.
Well, for those of us in other states, how does it look? Is Schmitt going to win? Will she run up the score?
The one very smart thing Rush has done is not to talk ONE word about Kagan on is show....remember how he used to go on about Marta..and she had that stupid website..
Why go to Australia in the wintertime to play golf?
Thanks, I'm reminded of spending election night on FRee Republic getting lots of just such posts, many FRom nice FReepers FRom OHIO, that was fantastic!!!!

Seriously! Here in Colorado we got nothin' but FR! I got one pdf from the official elections site but can't get another. They must be swamped! Thanks for posting the info when you get it. This is almost as bad as Nov!
So so
Is Schmitt going to win?
Yes.
Will she run up the score?
No. I guessed her to get 60%(about 200 posts ago), she'll probably get less, 52-55%, for the Repub in this deep red district.
