How we did

It appears we had quite a sweep last night.

The senate is split 50:50, with the detestable Allen currently behind Webb by about seven thousand votes. So, I'm going to go ahead and say it. Adios Macaca!

Some other highlights:

The senate is split 50:50. It appears we picked up Virginia, Missouri, and Montana which were the close senate races as well as Ohio, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. We held onto Maryland against Steele. If Virginia and Montana hold onto the current results we will have a 1-seat advantage if LiebesBush caucuses with the Dems.
We have another 6 years of LiebesBush who won by 10% over Lamont.
The South Dakota Abortion Ban appears to have been overturned by the voter referendum. It just goes to show, even in the deep red states nobody wants an abortion ban.
The House appears to be Democrat 231 to Republican 204 which represents a 28-seat pickup. A few heartbreaking losses are Tammy Duckworth losing to Roskam in IL, Chris Shays holding onto his seat in CT, Mean Jean Schmidt keeping her seat in Ohio, and the retarded unconstitutional anti-gay amendment winning here in Virginia. But don't worry, that amendment is so unconstitutional that the first federal court to see it will smack it down.
We picked up 6 governorships to bring us to 28 Dem governors and 22 Republican.
Oh, and William Jefferson held onto his LA seat so we will lose one seat once that crook goes to jail.

Overall a good night.
