Revisions/extensions (8:15 am 11/8/2006) – We have a winner in the AG race, and I added a few other races I didn’t have before.
Further revisions/extensions (10:40 pm 11/8/2006) – Scratch the Virginia recount; George Allen is more honorable than Kathleen Falk. Needles to say, Allen is a Pubbie, while Falk is a ‘Rat.
Time to go through the winners and losers:
Winners –
– Democrats – Well, duh. The ‘Rats took both houses of Congress (pending a likely recount in Virginia), the majority of governor’s mansions (including soundly keeping Jim “Craps” Doyle in position to reward his contributors and exact retribution on everybody else), and the state Senate.
– Terrorists – With control of Congress, the ‘Rats will defund the War on Terror and likely seek to conduct a “Constitutional coup” (they don’t have the 67 votes in the Senate to install Nancy Pelosi though). If the Islamokazis are smart, they’ll lay off the attacks a bit longer and let the ‘Rats also take the White House.
– Crooked politicians – Doyle, Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich and New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez (all ‘Rats) all won. Also, William Jefferson, the Louisiana ‘Rat with the $90,000 in the freezer, finished first in his Congressional re-election bid and faces a runoff.
– Traditional marriage – Every state with a referendum on the ballot regarding marriage except one (Arizona the outlier, with Colorado, Idaho, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia and Wisconsin the majority) voted to uphold traditional marriage.
– Law and order – JB Van Hollen beat back official Doyle whitewasher Kathleen Falk for AG, and John Chisholm at least ensured that Milwaukee County DA’s office won’t become even more of a catch-and-release office than it already is.
Losers –
– Republicans – Well, duh. Every type of Pubbie, from the very conservative (Rick Santorum) to the RepubicRATs (Lincoln Chafee) lost.
– Taxpayers – Between Doyle, the state Senate ‘Rats (especially John Lehman and Jim Sullivan) and various referenda (including, unfortunately, another $28.5 million in Oak Creek/Franklin), taxes will continue to skyrocket with no limits.
