"To elect a black man, in this country, and at this time—these last eight years must have really broken you."
That's gold

That's good to know, but I agree that the Reps are going to get at least 1 more. -

In the Senate race there are 4 seats still undecided but the Reps have 40 and I think the Dems needed 61 to be filibuster-proof, so that's not going to happen
In the House, the Dems have 237, Reps 153 with 45 still to be decided, so the Dems already have control, but the final numbers will be interesting for the composition of the various Committees.
Still haven't seen any results at all from Alaska but their polls only closed 3 minutes ago. It can't affect the total, but it will be interesting to see and it may have a bearing on whether Palin remains a player in the Republicans.

Cheers... we want "no" right?
California Proposition 8
"This measure would amend the state constitution to specify that only marriages between one man and one woman would be recognized as valid in the state. If passed, the measure would trump a May 2008 ruling by the California Supreme Court that legalized same-sex marriage."We (well, I) do indeed want "no" but I'm a little concerned at the moment, seeing how Florida's gone.
The actual numbers are
Yes 1,906,881
No 1,611,373With only 15% counted that's not a lot and could easily be overturned.
