I really hope she pulls it out. Besides keeping one of the best Dem senators at work, this would be Rossi’s third straight statewide loss. (His nickname is Lossi, and his immature attitude during the 2004 gubernatorial recount earned my complete and utter disdain for the man. I’d love to see him retire from the spotlight, although his perfect losing record is appealing.)
Not ever since her 2002 speech in which she praised Osama bin Laden.
That NEVER happened. What are you smoking?
A taken out of context smear job. Murray was speaking truthfully about why Osama had support in the Arab world. But God forbid anyone try to do that. TREASON!!!
Dude, do a little research. Your hard right sources are not to be trusted. Remember Shirley Sherrod?
Well, the dust has settled enough for some commentary, so here’s my take:
Biggest Colorado Non-Partisan WIN: Defeating all of the ballot initiatives.
Biggest Colorado Non-Partisan LOSS: Cary Kennedy is gone from the State Treasurer’s office. Kennedy was a boon to the office, and I’m guessing she’ll be missed.
Biggest Colorado Democratic WIN: Sen. Michael Bennet.
Biggest Colorado Democratic LOSS: all of the state executive offices other than Governor.
Biggest Colorado Republican WIN: Two U.S. House seats, which will be put to good use with the new Republican House majority.
Biggest Colorado Republican LOSS:
Sen.oops – DA Ken Buck couldn’t pull off the win. (Strong second place for Dan Maes and the state GOP if Maes falls back under 10% of the vote when all is said and done…)Biggest National Non-Partisan WIN: Voter turnout, which was reasonably high for a mid-term election.
Biggest National Non-Partisan LOSS: Campaign finance reform. Without a DISCLOSE Act or equivalent envisioned by the SCOTUS in their Citizens United decision, corporations and outside political organizations were able to completely overrun the election advertising process.
Biggest National Democratic WIN: None. It’s hard to call anything in this mess a “win” for Democrats.
Biggest National Democratic LOSS: The message war. Democrats were completely unable to convey the things they’ve done back to the voters, or the things Republicans were misleading voters in to believing.
Biggest National Republican WIN: The U.S. House. No question about it, this country will be run differently for the next two years with Republicans in control of the lower chamber of Congress.
Biggest National Republican LOSS: Tea Party Senate candidates, who IMHO managed to lose at least three otherwise “easy” Senate pick-up seats, as well as at least three other races where they were competitive.
From the Orlando Sentinal
Nationally the Democrats can be thankful that they had so few Senate seats to defend, and a good portion of them in deep blue states.
Here in Colorado they can be thankful that the GOP screwed up so royally at the top of the ticket, that may have saved a few races for them at the State Capitol.
The GOP screws things up. Lets see what they can do with their new found authority.
Nationally, Americans can be thankful the Obama wields the veto pen, and that three generations of progress will not be undone by Republicans.
Republicans made big strides in state legislatures.
From the link cited above:
With it being redistricting time, that could have more of a long term effect than the Congressional races.
Is that Democrats won’t have free reign to redistrict PA and OH to some form of normalcy.
The PA legislature has spent a lot of time in Republican control, including IIRC in the 2001 timeframe, so I don’t think Republicans can make the gerrymandering much worse than it already is there.
