But if it does exist, I'm sure I just earned five years in some level of it for feeding crazed conspiracy theories.

You just got 20.

That Kos now has a worse record than Susan Lucci.

This is apparently very bad.

they're losing because of Diebold, the number on the left side of the dash will continue to say zero. Which is mighty fine with me.

The number on the left is only zero because of Diebold, is what I'm sure you meant to say.

I certainly prefer a conservative won, but if he lost it'd just show the Democrat Party is kicking out moderates when they really need to hold whatever power they can.

If it's wrong to take pleasure at

"But more and more, I am convinced that too many powerful forces are in place (the corporate media, vote rigging, bought off machine politics, big corporate money) for representative government OF THE PEOPLE to ever really take place in this country."

or

"I've ** had it with stupid * democrats. I don't want to vote anymore, ever. ** republicans, ** democrats. ** the whole ** system. This one was a no brainer, but yet having no brains still wasn't easy enough to get through to people."

Then I don't want to be right.

We really get in trouble with the Man Upstairs for schadenfreude... if it is really true that Ciro's people have impounded the votes (and voting machines?) in Webb County, then that will allow the conspiracy theories to fester for goodness-knows how long.

At this point, it's very likely we will never see another election cycle in our lifetimes where the Kossacks and their descendents don't claim voter fraud.  It's a part of their narrative now etched in stone, as important as BushLied™

Strangely enough, the '04 Washington Gov race doesn't seem to come up much with them.

Rove: Great strategist. Not indicted, nor will be.

Halliburton: Huge Corporation. One of handful who is capable of handling the contracts they win

Levees: Worst natural disaster to ever hit US.  Levee problem was known decades ago. Bush not told of levees until next day. LA Gov. said levess were fine.

Culture of Corruption: Exists in both parties.

Downing Street Memo: Non starter. Didn't prove a thing then or now.

Dubai: No American companies bid!  Bill Clinton represents them. His wife is a Senator. No conflict there?

Iraq: Could be done better, though things are going better than reported. Just ask someone who is there. Still waiting for the civil war (3 years now).

Valerie Plame: Not a spy. Her husband lied. He will be indicted before Rove.

Cheney Hunting Accident: It was an accident.  What else can you say. Let it go.

Abramoff: Indicted. Giving up cohorts. Both parties will hurt from this (as they should).  Didn't Reids Chief of Staff go on one of his trips?

Diebold: You lost by not getting more votes.

National Guard Service: Honrable discharge.

Katrina: Hurricane created by an evil Haliburton weather machine which was invented by a  contractor named Simon Barsinister so blacks would have to leave New Orleans to make way for casinos (couldn't resist).

<stoner drawl> Where are the WMDeeeeeez, maaaaaaaan! </stoner drawl&gt

I have an e-mail into the Kurds, or those that weren't gassed in 1988.  As soon as the get back to me I will post it.  

I read your post imagining the voice of a whining toddler. absolutely had me rolling. LOL

thanks ;-)

You have an awesome wife to point that out. lol

Besides, WMD was not on your list.

Just for fun, you do realize we're on the same team, and this is all sarcasm, right?  Because I'm starting to wonder.

the moonbats are claiming something fishy with the tallies.  How can you not love the Kosmonauts?  They're always in outer space with their conspiracy theories,

The Kossacks are linking back to this dairy...

Should not be a surprise (none / 1)

But the Red Staters are looking for a Cuellar win here for obvious reasons. He's the right-wing's Secret Agent Blue. God I hate those guys.

I don't know how to link to an individual response, so I just copied...

We really get in trouble with the Man Upstairs for schadenfreude...

Maybe you're right, but with paranoid Kossacks it's just so irresistable. One of those temptations where the best you can do is sin, repent, repeat.

Whenever I get discouraged over some Republican screw up (policy or political) and start fearing for our electoral prospects, a quick browse of Daily Kos never fails to cheer me up. Even when they have something to gloat about, seeing the delusional nature of their chatter is a great confidence builder. Guys like that are what the Dems see as their future?

I suppose I should post this Florida-Diebold conspiracy video in Kos where some people wouldn't know it's a satire, but unless/until I get around to enrolling, I'll just put the link here.

de Kossacks will have a worse record than the '62 New York Mets. But at least the Mets were fun and you could admire their efforts. Not so for the Kossacks.

they aren't going to have a clue how to garner more votes outside their traditional base.

They haven't caught on yet that the same tired ideas, but just give them more funding doesn't appeal anymore.  Most people have realized those ideas aren't working.

of all 19 Kosmunist candidates?

...was not a good day for Democrats:  barring a miracle it looks like Ciro won't get a run-off, DeLay won the Repub primary pretty handily, and the Senate Intelligence Committee voted not to investigate Bush's NSA domestic survellience program.   I actually didn't know about Ciro or DeLay until this morning, so I was pretty bummed out when I visited RedState and saw your 19-0 story.  After I read this diary and the comments in it my blood was way up.  At first I thought of all the mitigating factors that would make our three failures seem more like small victories. Then I murmured oaths to myself about what would happen when the Dems were back in power.  After that I cursed the Democratic Party for its ineffectiveness and vowed to stop concerning myself with politics for the next few months.  All in all, the past few hours have been very frustrating and disappointing for me.  

I am pretty sure my reaction to yesterday and this morning is typical of many Donks who enjoy reading political blogs.  So, if you want to enjoy a little schadenfreude, please think of me.

1. It's really good to see you again.
   
   
2. Schadenfreude is only enjoyable at the expense of people you don't like. That doesn't include you.

Regards.

I noticed that too, the Washington race had Rossi up and then 3 recounts later and late surfacing votes in heavily democrat precints gave the Dem the win, suddenly, they wanted to move on ..

They were also silent when T. Johnson defeated Thune in SD by a few hundred votes, thanks to the ever growing and often courted "Dead Indian" vote ..

Yea, sure, those are legit, but a 180,000 vote difference in Ohio in '04 is rigged ..

I love reading Daily Kos when yet another election runs against them. They have more conspiracy theories than an Oliver Stone movie. They literally think that the GOP rigged the election in a completely democratically controlled district. It makes me laugh seeing them contort reality to their own fragile psychological needs :)

One of these days, God help us, if the donkeys ever figure out that their message actually needs to resonate with the voters before they can actually win the votes of those folks who don't sit down at the ballot and mark the big "D" strait party ticket, like they've been indoctrinated.

We might be mindful that Cueller is more representative of the Hispanic populaltion in Texas than was Rodriguez.  

Everything I say is sarcastic!  One of my best and worst features.

SNAP!!!

is the person lamenting the power of the republican media machine and that there is no liberal media machine to counter it.

VRWC secret password of the day: "Ted Turner"

i was my 5th grade class president - kos endorsed Billy Jo down the block

I don't know who this guy is, but he beats the Dems everytime he runs (and he runs in many places simultaneously too, that's some trick). We gotta get behind this guy. Deibold for President in '08!

I just love it. There is only one candidate in that district who could do better than Ciro Rodriguez against Henry Cuellar - and that is State Sen. Judith Zafarini. That said, based on what little I know of her (I went to the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas with her son and my family had desert at her home in Laredo once when I was in elementary school) she would probably be much more ideologically akin to Cuellar than Rodriguez. Granted, not AS good, but closer to Cuellar than Rodriguez. And she certainly would have voted for CAFTA.
