I am not giving up until the last ballot is cast. The morning shows are filled with the doom

and gloom for when the rethugs take over the Senate. Even 'Steve Kornecki has joined in. He had C Matthews on his show putting a nail in the democratic coffin. Is there no light at the end of the election tunnel? I refuse to surrender!

this is what happens when democrats try to run as republicans....I am thoroughly disgusted by the current crop of Dems. I voted for all of them on the ballot but did so reluctantly. Those with more integrity then me will probably stay home.

It should be an automatic hide if you ask me...buncha posers trying to suppress the Dem. Voters. The problems are mostly in strong conservative areas......how does running a more left candidate help when most of those populations are not Left leaning? This is a stoopid premise...

Those Sunday morning lineups aren't worth the effort to turn on the TV set.
