I'm so tired of reps and dems.......

Uh, wut?


The Republicans hold at least 50 Senate seats, and might even pick up one or two more.

The Democrats only gained 10 House seats.

Hardly a victory, since Republicans still control the House and Senate.

The Big Blue Wave fizzled.

They can't win statewide elections.
Republicans lost seats in Florida,Arizona, Oklahoma, Iowa, Texas, Michigan, Kansas, Virginia and Minnesota (as well as possibly Utah and Maine)

All of those states were actually drawn by Republicans.

stop lying to yourself LOL

It's okay...it's not like CA was going to have a R Senator win. Trust me, you do not want her opponent.

I don't like her politics but she's a moderate Dem compared to who was running against her. I think the far left liberals in CA are upset over this.

Reminds me of when SC kept sending Strom Thurmond back. Such a waste! With only two Senators from each state, having one knocking on death’s door when elected is SUCH a bad idea.

It was the Republican candidates's characters for all the losses.

Kelly Ann just confirmed that....lol.
You know he would have got the blame had they lost.

Agreed, I would have voted for her if I lived in CA.

I'm not sure what results you're looking at. Dems have gained 21 seats so far, according to ABC.

If it is going as "expected", why are Democrats so sad on TV....
