Second "Official" KOEB Election Night Coverage Thread 11/07/06

[Berry Cool]

By popular demand...a second thread!!



Keith in Orange for Fair Elections!!!!

[tinfoil tiaras]

1. he is too cute in that picture

i lovelovelove the orange lacoste shirt!!!! :D

[RevCheesehead]

2. THANK YOU!!

:loveya::9:loveya: Too Delish!!

[Berry Cool]

6. I love the chest hair

...gotta stop talking about it...just makes me sad. *sigh*

[tinfoil tiaras]

3. now Pat whats his face is on

but Keith is still there! But damn....Tweety speaks!! :( :(

[Janice325]

4. Tweety said Rahm Emanuel was smirking???

WTF?
Do I need new glasses, or does Tweety need his eyes checked?

[WolverineDG]

10. Tweety needs to have his lips permanently stapled

Just my pissed-off opinion. :grr:

dg

[bunny planet]

65. Isn't he an ass tonight? That's why I'm not watching.

Although Mr. Bunny did just give up the teevee so I can now.
Is Keith still there?

[Berry Cool]

72. Keith is still there and will be all night.

How much he gets to talk? That's up to Tweety's big mouth. :banghead:

[WolverineDG]

5. Don't forget the President of his Fan Club

:hi: all

HEY MSNBC, MORE KEITH, LESS TWEETY!!

dg

[bunny planet]

7. Yeah, I love that picture.

New thread.
We almost have our country back.

[tinfoil tiaras]

8. oh shit

i misread your message. i thought you said all of us KO fans should have our own country :blush: :rofl:

[bunny planet]

17. I hit the send button before I finished the sentence, so it did say

'we're taking our country' for a minute.
Oopsy.
Hmmm, maybe we should have our own country.

[tinfoil tiaras]

21. i second that motion

:party:

[Berry Cool]

9. Yea!! Stephanie followed us!!!

We know things are going well when Pat Buchanan is trying to underplay it and say it's not going to be a "blowout." :rofl:

[bunny planet]

11. Mr. Bunny has taken over the teevee and he cannot bear Tweety so I can't

watch, its ok, I can't bear Tweety either. In the short time I watched he didn't miss a chance to take some cheap shots at Dems, and disingenous cheap shots at that.

I wish it was KO without Chris.
It should be.

[Berry Cool]

24. Oh, but Bun-Bun, don't you KNOW????

Tweety is the pride of all MSNBC political coverage. He is THE alpha political anchor. Keith is only on there now because he's so popular at the moment. MSNBC still sees him as a pretender to the throne. They see Tweety as their REAL political expert. *sigh*

[tinfoil tiaras]

25. Tweety needs to STFU with the sucking up to Bushco

[bunny planet]

28. yes I know, and its hard to watch them do it.

Most of them wouldn't even have jobs anymore if he hadn't singlehandedly had the integrity to speak the truth and garner beaucoup ratings for the network. They still seem to be figuring that out.

[tinfoil tiaras]

12. Can I say that the atmosphere here on DU and in the KO threads is

"electric"? With happiness, maybe.

All i gotta say is...

ABOUT. DAMN. TIME.

:)

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

16. GUARDEDLY Optimistic

It isn't over quite yet.

[tinfoil tiaras]

19. it feels electric to me, but guardedly optimistic is good enough

:D :hi:

my man Harold Ford better win!! I was tempted to take of school, jump the border to Tennessee, pretend i was 18, register to vote and vote for Harold Ford. heh heh. :)

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

13. KEITH Is Back!!!

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

14. And Then He's Gone! Back To Whora!

[tinfoil tiaras]

15. OH. SHIT.

Why in the hell is George "Macaca" Allen winning?!?!?!! What the hell is going on?!?

"Macaca" is a loser. Who has a fucking noose in his office. You. Just. Don't. Fucking. Do. That. Man.

Sorry about the cussing, but Mr. Macaca makes me angry.

[Berry Cool]

22. Because a lot of Virginians are racists themselves

or maybe the election is just being stolen. Who knows?

[tinfoil tiaras]

23. i bet it's the ladder

those dirty rethugs and their dirty ties to fucking DIEBOLD.... :mad:

well, maybe some people are racist, but I'm a southerner that's probably the least racist person in the entire state :)

[bunny planet]

66. Its still within 1%, if it stays that way, do we get a recount????

You know that's what they would do, shoe on other foot.
Can't have a recount without a paper trail though.

Isn't Macacawitz still under suspicion for the harrassing and illegal phone calls to Dems trying to intimidate them not to vote?
Oh wait, that's the FBI investigating. My bad.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

18. Keith Back....For The Mo

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

20. Tweety!

You had been gone for at least 5 minutes.

[Berry Cool]

26. Oh, here comes McCain to try to apologize for his lousy party.

Do I hear the word "failures" coming from his lips...?

He's still a damn Bush apologist.

[tinfoil tiaras]

30. i used to have the smallest bit of respect for him

but since he spoke at Jerry Fallwell's college, no...hell no.

[Janice325]

27. Can't someone slip some Exlax or something in whatever he's drinking tonight?

Puhleeeeezzzzz!

[RevCheesehead]

29. Potty Break?

Or do you think he keeps a bottle under the desk? :evilgrin:

[Janice325]

31. Can't they find some more "happy Democrats" to interview??

Oh, wait. They're dragging out Tweety's friends and those whose ass he's kissed in the past, right?
Where's our Keefe????
More Keith, no more Tweety!!
Haha, Tweety's brother lost in his election bid for whatever the hell he ran for.
Oh, goody. Harry Reid!!! He's smiling!! Yippee!!

[Berry Cool]

32. Yea! Keef's talking to Harry Reid!!

So sick of seeing Tweety commiserate with losing Repubs.

The GD threaders are asking whether he thinks he's auditioning for Fox News! :rofl:

[tinfoil tiaras]

33. i bet he's auditioning to be Hannity's new show partner

When Colmes finally has enough and leaves the Fox Propoganda Network behind... :rofl:

I can see it now : Hannity and Tweety sittin in a tree....K-I-S-S-I-N-G :P :P

or he may be a protege' of Falafelmort....

[Janice325]

43. Berry and tinfoil, you guys must be mindreaders.

I was thinking a few minutes ago that Tweety would be much better suited to Fox.
(Thank God no one has pulled out Rita, unless I missed something).

[Berry Cool]

34. Well, now we get to see the Big Dawg.

Love seeing a guy who used to be the Prez standing behind his woman like a good little man. :rofl:

Anyone else noticed the excellent MSNBC ads for Keith's Special Comments tonight? Love 'em.

[Berry Cool]

35. Keith: Hillary in a landslide over John Spencer

"from my neck of the woods, who...got some votes." :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

36. And here's Ken Mehlman. Cue Sam Seder's squeaky closet door.

"Will ya SHUT THAT CLOSET DOOR? It's making too much noise!" :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

39. I got a call from the Big Dawg today!!

When I came home, the cats were stirred up (more than usual).... so I checked the answering machine. And it was BILL - asking me to vote for Steve Kagen!!

The good news: with 33% in, Steve is ahead, 52%-48%. This is an open seat, once held by a nasty repuke (Mark Green). :bounce::bounce:

[CC]

40. Big Dawg looks genuinely proud

of Hill and happy for her...and I hope the man sleeps for the next week. Between the pictures Raging in Miami took and the pics on our local news the man is looking beyond tired. I was beginning to worry about his health.

[Patsy Stone]

77. Confession:

I didn't hear a damn word she said. :)

[tinfoil tiaras]

37. WOOT WOOT

Tester is winning in Montana so far

but with good news, comes bad news: Corker (porker... yuck. i hate that word. "porker" and "crusty" are the worst words in the world) is winning

and more good news: Pederson is winning in Arizona (12% reporting)

and more bad news: Talent's ahead in Missouri :(

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

38. Waiting For CA

When California closes in 20 minutes, they're going to call a bunch of races. Probably quite a few House races, and 1 or 2 of the big 3 Senate seats may get called.: TN, MO, VA.

They're waiting for the big state of CA to close.

GUARANTEE: At 11 PM EST EXACTLY, they'll call CA for Schwarzenegger, to give the repubs a momentary boost. After that, we'll see.

[Berry Cool]

41. Ken Mehlman is cracking me up.

He's pleading and pleading for bipartisanism and working together.

Do you think he'd be saying that if the Repugs were winning? Not on your life baby. He'd be all "The people have spoken...we have a mandate...they want US to stay in charge of everything...so the Dems had better get the F out of our way, because WE are handling EVERYTHING from now on...WE are in complete control!"

What a maroon.

[tinfoil tiaras]

42. good news from NC (18) and Ohio (don't know)

dems are projected to win!! woot! :woot:

Dem wins Foley's district too FL-16!! Payback, baby

Keith's announcing teh senate projections
R-46
D-43
I-2 (caucusing w/ dems)

9 undecided

[Berry Cool]

45. MSNBC predicts Dems retake House!!!!

:woohoo:

[tinfoil tiaras]

44. OH SNAP

projected wins (house):
dems-231
rethugs-204

:woohoo:

[Janice325]

46. Haha, Karma's a bitch!!!

Has anyone else thought to call the MSNBC number (201-583-5000-hint, hint) and leave comments about tonight's coverage?

[Berry Cool]

47. Dead Intern Joe says: They're making a list, they're checking it twice...

...and subpoenas will sort out who's naughty and nice!

Not good news for Bushco!!

[tinfoil tiaras]

48. Nancy Pelosi better raise hell on Bushco

when she becomes speaker.

looks like the rethugs scare tactics ("NANCY PELOSI WILL EAT YOUR NEWBORN BABIES IF SHE BECOMES SPEAKER!!!") haven't worked this time.... heh heh.

[Janice325]

49. I wonder how much shredding is going on tonight.

Ooh, I'm gonna hit 1000 tonight.
Countdown (:rofl:)
Goody, Keith's on for his usual 5 seconds tonight.

[tinfoil tiaras]

50. wow. i told you that in the other thread.

see...i can predict the future! i predicted (along with a bunch of other people) that the dems would win the house and now i predicted that you would hit 1000 posts! :woohoo:

[CC]

51. Looked in on the latest page

and someone was saying they were enjoying watching Fox tonight because they are so depressed. So went hunting what channel it is on here (deleted it from our tv, v chipped it downstairs) and looking in...they are sounding depressed. Now back to flipping from local news and Keith.

[WolverineDG]

53. Here's Keith

Don't blink, you'll miss him.

dg

[CC]

55. I noticed that and

that they have him on when when the local people I want to see are on...like Cardin and O'Malley. Though Steele hasn't conceded yet. Another whiny no fair repuke.

[tinfoil tiaras]

54. heh. heh. karma is a motherfucker

Fox news!!! you're getting what you deserved a long time ago...since Tweety is talking, I may switch over to the White House Propoganda network and watch them shrivel up!!! :evilgrin:

[CC]

64. It is a big difference in tone.

So quiet and I can't blame it all on big mouth Tweets.

[Patsy Stone]

68. I turned it on just to see their poopy faces.

:rofl:

If possible, Brit Hume and Ken Melman's faces are longer than normal.

[WolverineDG]

52. Problems w/machines in Hidalgo County

Vote totals coming in were "illogical," according to Stephanie Stone, reporter for KRGV TV, so the vote count was STOPPED, zeroed out & restarted. Apparently the machine count was drastically different than what the paper trail showed (?).

dg

[RevCheesehead]

56. Hot Damn! Gov. Doyle (WI) has been re-elected!!

:woohoo:

At least, that's what ALL the locals are calling right now!!

Hey, Mark: Na,na,na,na - hey, hey, hey - GOODBYE!!!

[Berry Cool]

57. Hey, you guys, is it time for this yet?

I thought some people might want to use it on their new office windows.

[Berry Cool]

58. Stretch is back to tell us how depressed * is.

Aww...he's going to have to figure out how to deal. Poor baby. He's likely to retire for the night soon. Would that he would retire PERMANENTLY.

[tinfoil tiaras]

60. Y'know, the president has to retire for the night because he's like a

black and decker vacuum-if he doesn't get recharged, he can't suck as much ;)

i love colbert.

[RevCheesehead]

61. Where's the Pillsbury Rove Boy?

I wanna see HIS friggin' face!!

[bunny planet]

73. Here he is Rev

He's just about to get toasted.

[RevCheesehead]

90. HA!

Overrated, and not nearly as tasty as you'd think. :evilgrin:

[bunny planet]

106. Whose the genius now?

Oh that's right, its our guy Howard Dean with the 50 state strategy instead of KKKarl's plan to play to the dead enders and try and steal the rest with shenanigi.

[WolverineDG]

62. He's getting help from his friends Jack & Jim

Daniels & Beam, that is. :evilgrin:

Are they going to be able to sober him up enough for his press conference tomorrow?

dg

[Patsy Stone]

70. One of the punditocracy said he'd have some difficult decisions

to make. That's when I yelled at the TV, "Yeah, like whether to resign now or just wait until he's impeached."

[RevCheesehead]

59. Hell, yeah!

Sorry - I got bonked off DU for a while. We're currently on LOW BANDWIDTH in order to keep things running!

[bunny planet]

63. Hey guys, any news yet on Nancy Skinner?

Sharon must be having a chicken.
I'm so proud of her I could burst.

Somebody just said 'Santorum No Moreum' on Mike Malloy's show.
LOL
Amen to that.

[WolverineDG]

67. Not sure

Everytime I see Michigan results, they break away for something stoopid, like a Tweety headshot. :banghead:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

69. I haven't caught her name yet

And I've been looking.

[bunny planet]

78. what the f_ck is Tweety blathering about now

a kid touching the bus that der Gropinator was riding in like it was 'sacrimental'. Tweety is mental, with out the sacri part. Geesh. Take a nap Tweety. Two words for you, Ahnold, Enron, Ahnold, Enron, Ahnold, Enron.

[WolverineDG]

89. Just talking to hear his damn head rattle

SHUT THE FUCK UP, TWEETY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dg

[Patsy Stone]

74. Here's CNN as of now -- 7% reporting

RACE STATUS CANDIDATE VOTE VOTE % PRECINCTS LOCAL EXIT POLLS
Michigan 09
7% of precincts reporting votes by county not available
Updated: 11:57 p.m. ET

Knollenberg (Incumbent)

C'mon, Nancy!

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

71. Did You Just Hear Tweety LIE About VA Race?

He said Webb was behind, and in trouble.

HE'S AHEAD!!

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2006/pages/results/states/VA/S/01/index.html

[Patsy Stone]

76. He's a bit slow...

And stupid.

:hi:, OCD!

[Berry Cool]

79. Oh, make me puke. Tweety going on and on with a story about some kid

who was once reverently touching Ahnold's bus like it was some holy relic and imbued with sacred power..."it was the closest he would ever come to greatness."

Keith makes bad "sacramental-Sacramento" joke to defuse Tweety's idiocy about how much Ahnold is revered and how people really don't care what kind of governor he is because they worship him as a movie star.

[Patsy Stone]

81. I've long since lost control of the TV

But I'm glad I missed that story. :eyes:

[WolverineDG]

91. His guest called him on it

& Tweety just blathered on. Asshole!

MORE KEITH, LESS TWEETY!

dg

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

75. Everyone Catch Tweety's Insult Of Keith?

"Diminishing # of people who like puns, thank god."

[Patsy Stone]

80. Oh,nohedidn't!!!

Isn't it time to put him down for his nap?

[bunny planet]

84. Ha, we are on that wavelength again.

I just posted to you, 'Tweety take a nap'.
He is insufferable tonight.

[bunny planet]

87. I thought I had written about Tweety's nap.

I'm so loopy, I imagined I had written it. I think.

[Patsy Stone]

98. You totally did.

And yes, GMTA. :hug:

:toast:

[Berry Cool]

85. You know, Tweety is an a-number-1 jerk. I think he feels insecure now

because he realizes Keith's brains and knowledge wipe the floor with his. Well, too damn bad. I hope Keith gets to cover the '08 election ALONE!

Sheesh, Keith sits there sometimes looking like he wishes he was sharing the desk with Dan Patrick again. At least Dan would groan at his bad puns and perhaps add one of his own.

It's like Dan says: Keith is "the man who is singlehandedly saving our democracy--one 'mock' at a time."

[WolverineDG]

100. Keith's probably figured out

they only asked him to "co-host" so the set would look balanced & all his Countdown viewers would tune in.

This is a god-damnned bait & switch. Trumpet the fact that Keith will be doing coverage, then give the lion's share of camera time to that asshole Tweety.

dg

[Cassandra]

184. Tweety said that he and Keith both voted.

I thought Keith had said in the past that he never voted. I guess he couldn't restrain his inner citizen any longer.
I'm catching up this morning on my tape.

[WolverineDG]

186. Hooray! He listened to me!

:loveya:

Please allow me to have my delusions; we got skunked in Texas again. :cry:

dg

[Cassandra]

189. I think he listened to himself.

After telling everyone else to vote, how could he not?

[gkhouston]

191. I think KO figured it out before 11/7. I know I did.

I thought it might be a tad less obvious. I wonder if Tweety realizes that hogging the camera like that actually made him look worse in comparison. Now we know he knows he's on his way down. But I guess it's only the news that got small. ;-)

[bunny planet]

82. Any news on Musgrave vs Paccione.

I really want MM,that homophobic nutbar, to lose big.

[Patsy Stone]

83. CNN: South Dakota voters reject law banning almost all abortions.

Go, South Dakota! :thumbsup:

[Berry Cool]

88. I am very pleased with Ohio's vote on the state issues this year.

All the results are going the way I voted, including the raise-the-minimum-wage issue. Almost (but not quite) makes up for the fact that the lousy anti-gay-marriage issue passed in '04.

[Patsy Stone]

96. I still live in a Red state.

I want to cry. Booooo.

I'm so glad some of the people in this country woke up. It's about damn time!

[WolverineDG]

102. You & me both, sister

Which blue state should we pick? Michigan to be close to Sharon or Ohio so we can pester Botany?

dg

[Patsy Stone]

104. Tough choice...

But how about Wisconsin? Right up there in the middle?

[WolverineDG]

111. Perhaps

but would we have to root for the Packers? ;)

dg

[Patsy Stone]

117. It might be the law

We'll have to check. :) The cheese might make up for it.

[bunny planet]

119. no, come to Joisey, we can make a right turn on red

and we have a Dem Gov and two Dem Senators, plus moi.

[bunny planet]

86. WEBB ahead now!!!!

Be still my heart.
Is it too late to start drinking for tomorrow.
I have so many chickens in the room with me from tonight's news there are feathers everywhere.
Yipppeeeeee.

[RevCheesehead]

93. You plotzing fiend!

:evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

94. That's gonna go to a recount

I just feel it. I think David Shuster said the magic number was 11,000. That would determine if it would be automatic or if the loser has to pay for it.

I can't take Tweety. Even Wolf Blitzer seems calming in comparison -- except for the ick factor of Bill Bennett bloviating.

[bunny planet]

105. I think Tester will win.

Did Hastert lose his seat in the house to that guy Laesher?

[Patsy Stone]

109. Nope

They said he won. I think Tester will win too.

[Patsy Stone]

113. Here's where Macaca blathers on and will (I bet) mention a recount.

I don't think he's going away quietly.

[bunny planet]

92. Supposedly Tester is crushing Burns.

Youza!!!!

Oh Tom Brokaw made a funny, 'Virginia doesn't have any hanging chads does it.'

Please Russ, let us have a withdrawal strategy well in place way before the 2008 elections. We can't wait.
Murtha's redeployment plan is ready to implement.

[CC]

95. I'm on local news for a bit

listening to our next Governor and maybe future President. Wish everyone could hear him now. Talking about Marylanders and American have suffered a great deal in the last few years and quoting Mya Angelo.

[WolverineDG]

97. Just talked to Sharon

For some reason, the votes in her county are coming in very slowly. No telling when they're going to get any results. At one point, Nancy was up by 1, now she's down by 3, with only 7% reporting. Sharon said a couple of precincts had so many voters, they ran out of ballots, areas that Nancy hit really hard. There is also a state senate race from the same area that they've heard nothing about yet.

Keep your fingers & toes crossed, y'all!

dg

[Patsy Stone]

99. Man, oh man!

That's what it was half an hour ago. She must be dying.

[bunny planet]

182. any news this morning

I'm trying to find information on Skinner's race everywhere, no news that I can see.

[Janice325]

101. Did anyone notice a while ago,

David Shuster was reporting about some election (don't remember which). He finished his commentary and turned it over to Keith. However, asshole Tweety interrupted, jumped on in and continued. Sheesh.
I just saw an add for Keith. It said "When Keith talks, people listen."
Yeah, everyone but Chris Matthews.:banghead:

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

103. Keith Is Either Not Bothered Or Does Not Let It Show

Tweety and MSNBC have been giving him short shrift IMO tonight.

[Patsy Stone]

107. AAARRRGGGHHHH!!! Frank Luntz!

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!

[Janice325]

110. AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!

More Tweety, trying to talk about how tough it is for women (i.e., Clinton & Pelosi).
The man is a total moran.
Perhaps he can get "demoted" to Fox???

[Patsy Stone]

114. He was obnoxious with the Pelosi/woman stuff.

Actually, insulting. What a tool. And Frank Luntz: the missing link?

[gkhouston]

192. deliciously ironic, since Tweety's voice is especially grating. n/t

[Berry Cool]

118. He said something about men not liking to hear a woman

give a "barnburner" speech because of the tone her voice would take on. Or something.

Tweety...just SHUT UP. You are sounding like such an IDIOT.

You guys aren't kidding, this is bait and switch. Or maybe it just seems that way because Tweety is so pushy and talks over Keith.

When is MSNBC going to realize that Tweety is their star of the past...Keith is their star of the future.

[bunny planet]

108. I've always said that Delay's removal and indictment would trigger a domino

theory collapse of Republican control. He had so many people strong armed, blackmailed, and intimidated. As soon as he was gone, things began to change rapidly.
Same with Unca Karl, without his power in place, lots of quivering Republicans, Dems, and media will not be saying ' we'll bend over, you drive' anymore.

[Patsy Stone]

112. WTF, Chris????

Nancy will be "grating"?? Like nails on a chalkboard? A rally speech from a woman is annoying to some men? Fuck you, Chris!

[Janice325]

120. I agree. Fuck Chris!

Maybe some folks will call tomorrow and complain about Tweety to MSNBC "viewer comments." The number again is 201-583-5000. I'm going to call again tomorrow.
God, what a fucking tool he is. I think he's a legend in his own mind. He's apparently not really listening to what Keith has to say.
I'm really feeling like Tweety is "dumbing down" the network and doing them a disservice each time he opens his mouth. The words are pouring out, but there's no substance. Compare that to Keith, and there's no comparison.
Poor Keith.
I love ya, man! Hang in there.
Haha, I think Keith came on board at 6pm, Tweety's been on longer. I'm getting sick of him talking about race, women, etc. I never realized just how awful and negative he was until tonight.

[Berry Cool]

121. Yeah, men don't want to hear a woman give a rally speech

because her voice will sound like nails on a chalkboard to them. Nice, eh?

Tweety needs to go to bed and let Keith handle the rest of the night.

[WolverineDG]

135. Getting on the FU Chris Train

FUCK YOU CHRIS MATTHEWS!!!

Your misogyny is showing. Asshole.

dg

[bunny planet]

115. Tweety just slipped up, said something about wanting all of Allen's votes

to be counted, and then corrected and said all of the votes to be counted.

Hmmmm, Tweety wants Macacawitz to win.
Did he get a deer head in his mailbox.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

125. "THE MATH": TWEETY=POS!

[WolverineDG]

136. Yep, I caught that

Not a very graceful "save" either.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

116. HOT!!! 33,000 uncounted votes in Fairfax County

All good thoughts to you, Jim Webb.

[bunny planet]

122. Yes, provisional ballots. The whole country will be watching, you know they

have got to be mostly dem and they won't be able to circular file them..
How come nobody talks about the military votes like they did in 2000?
They never got mentioned in 2004 either. Funny that.
They played such a big role in 2000
I'm surprised stemcell initiative is getting shot down in Missouri.

[Patsy Stone]

129. No, she's WINNING!!!

Go, Claire!!!

[Berry Cool]

123. Oh, and now Pat Buchanan is going back to the "conservative issues winning"

tack. Please. But he conceded, the Senate could go our way as well.

[Janice325]

124. Pat Buchanan's on.

Shut up! Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!
I think my head's gonna explode.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

126. Keith Who?

Just Sayin'

AGAIN!

[CC]

131. I will be calling the comment

line tomorrow. did you just see Tweets cut off Keith AGAIN? Keith is looking bemused irritated about it. Going back over to Colbert.

[Patsy Stone]

134. Colbert's still winning across the board, isn't he?

:rofl:

[CC]

141. Actually back to the Daily

Show now...so missed both live except for bits and pieces. I just can't take anymore of Tweety so will only check in during CC commercials.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

147. No TDS Or Colbert Here In CA Yet...

How long has it been on? 2 1/2 hours now?

152. An hour long so I watched the repeat that

came on just after it was over. Don't miss it, great shows.

[Cassandra]

183. Swings to the right in the South...

which is Bush country. LOL!!

[bunny planet]

127. Mrs. King's funeral was bad for Bill and Hillary.

I seem to remember a black reverend eviscerating Bush right in front of him and Laura, that was the story.
This group of losers is talking about Hillary.
Don't worry Joe, the Democrats are not going to misread this.
They are going to 'drain the swamp.' Now this panel, except for Howard Fineman are bloviating and lying.
Same old tired Dems have no plan nonsense. We'll see.

[Berry Cool]

132. What was this LATEST from Tweety??

He was MAKING FUN of Hillary and Bill. At first Keith was agreeing with his point that one-on-one meetings with the media are more effective than coverage of these big speeches in a room full of supporters, but then he was analyzing the fact that everyone was rhythmically clapping, including Hillary ("what's with the clapping? It looks CHINESE or something!") and saying Bill looked like "Luthor" and "This big man behind her." Keith was about to try to get a word in edgewise but Tweety wouldn't let him--"We have some more results."

Tweety is an ass.

[bunny planet]

128. Keith really needs a barf bag with him on this program.

Tweety needs to still badger Dems, if the Republicans were winning tonight. They would not be getting this treatment.
And he keep cutting Keith off. Infuriating.

[bunny planet]

130. McCaskill ahead.

Tester ahead.
Allen ahead.
So far by not enough to avoid recounts. But with what ballots?

[Patsy Stone]

137. You meant Webb

but :bounce:

It's a lovely night. If Jim Davis had won, then I could be completely happy. Also, this race that Citizen Joe kept harping on, in Florida's 13th (Cruella's old seat) being proof that the "base turned out" in FL? It seems that margin of victory for the Repub is -- wait for it -- 364 votes.

U.S. House - District 13 | COUNTY RESULTS
Candidate Votes % of votes
Vern Buchanan (REP) 119,060 50%
Christine Jennings (DEM) 118,696 50%
100% of precincts

I'm thinking recount...

[RevCheesehead]

133. THERE'S A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE!!!

Dr. Steve Kagen has won the WI 8th congressional district!!!

AND:

This is a pick-up for us! Open seat was repuke!! :bounce::bounce:

[Berry Cool]

138. Tweety: "When are Democrats going to realize that Americans like MOVIE STARS??"

What an ass. Yeah, Tweety, we can elect a president, we just need to find ourselves a MOVIE STAR. Doesn't matter whether he's qualified or not, people will vote for him because he's a friggin' MOVIE STAR.

Fine. Let's put up Michael J. Fox.

[WolverineDG]

Which brings us back to "My Favorite Year"

"I am not an actor. I'm a MOVIE STAR!"

Oh Keith, if only you had chosen the Boss Hijack suit, the irony would be complete.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

139. OMG! Now that farbisseneh Ben Ginsburg!!!

Somebody kill me now...

[WolverineDG]

140. That's it, I'm calling it quits

I see more of Keith in 1 hour of Countdown than I have since 5 pm yesterday!

dg

[Patsy Stone]

143. I'm right behind you.

Off to bed also. 'night, DG. More tomorrow.

It's been waaaay too much Tweety, imo.

[Janice325]

144. Isn't it past Tweety's bedtime by now???

I wonder if as many other folks are as pissed off as we are at the "lack of Keith" and Tweety's "over motor mouthing."
They're showing Ford's concession speech now for several minutes. Tweety must be taking a potty and caffeine break now. :sarcasm:

[Patsy Stone]

142. So, I looked on the Florida SoS website...

It seems that some the biggest counties (with the largest cities) haven't counted their Absentee and Provisionals yet. Broward isn't done at all, and neither is Seminole or Volusia. In my wildest dreams I wake up to discover that Davis found 100K+ votes.

Also, can't they just get 'er done in Volusia county already? Haven't we been through that twice?

[Berry Cool]

145. I'm signing off the Internets for tonight.

Going to crawl into bed, watch and doze. If someone sees the need for a third thread eventually, go ahead!

I am getting SO tired of hearing Tweety interrupt Keith.

If I fall asleep, at least I have an alarm set to go off and wake me up in time to put in another tape. I have a sad feeling I will not miss much.

[Janice325]

146. Nighty night, Berry.

:hug:
Aha, my thousandth post after Berry! :bounce:
I don't think I can take Tweety much longer. Rude to Murtha now. :puke:

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

148. You Guys....

Quitters. Just because you're back east and it's late.

Heck...it's only 10:30 here in CA.

I hear they're going to give Keith the 3 AM - 6 AM EST shift, so you should stay up a few more hours.

:-)

[Janice325]

149. Ooh, ooh!!!!

Keith without Tweety???????
It's 1:41am where I am, but heck, I was gonna make some popcorn (finished off my bottle of Night Owl Merlot some time ago).
Really??? No Tweety?? The guy's considerably older than Keith....
I'll try to stay up longer.
Ha, I've never changed the channel from MSNBC since 4pm. In retrospect, I guess I'm a glutton for punishment (caused by Tweety), but at least I can bitch about Tweety here.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

163. I WAS JUST JOKING...

I'm sure Keith will be there, but he'll probably have to deal with Tweety.

I was being sarcastic, sorry.

[Janice325]

176. Oh, NOW I read your post about joking!!

:rofl:
That's ok. :loveya: anyhoo.

[WolverineDG]

180. Some of us have to go to work at 8 am

& going to bed at 12:30 doesn't make for a pleasant day. :cry:

dg

[crispini]

150. Jesus Christ, I think I'm an Election Judge. I think the Dems just took control of my precinct.

Hello children!

Dallas County just went Democratic!

Congratulate me!


Oh and can I just say SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE PELOSI! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[CC]

151. Checking back in and to GREAT

NEWS. Way to go Crispini. And yes you can say SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE PELOSI! while I shout Subpoena Power.

[crispini]

153. Chairman of the Judiciary JOHN CONYERS.

eaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

[CC]

154. Hope blivet* is having

nightmares tonight and for the rest of his life.

[CC]

155. MO goes to

Claire McCaskill. :woohoo:

[crispini]

156. That is TEH BOM!111

Two seats left in the senate to be decided right?

If we get Senate I will wake up all my dem friends and dance nekkid in the street.

[WolverineDG]

181. Another of the few things we can cheer about

here in Texas. :party:

dg

[crispini]

157. I am so glad I got to see some Keef tonight.

What Independent Senator lost?

[CC]

158. I don't know if it was an indy that lost or that

Vermont's retired and a Socialist picked up his seat. I am fuzzy on details since I have been celebrating Cardin and O'Malley winning here, our taking the house and maybe the Senate. We are finally back to being a solid blue state.

[crispini]

160. Yeah, I have a problem with nationwide at the moment.

So exccited bout our judges adn my new state house democart. :D

[SharonRB]

162. Hi, guys

I'm here now. Got home from Nancy's party about a half hour ago. She had to get some sleep, so we broke it up without know anything. Only 7 percent had reported when we left, but now it's up to 82 and she's down by 8 or so. I'm not giving up yet because one of the areas where she had a lot of support had some major problems and they were still voting at 10 p.m. My guess is that that's the area that isn't in yet. Turnout was great and she took quite a few of the cities in the district from what I read in the Michigan forum.

I can't sleep -- I need to know before I call it quits.

[CC]

165. Hi Sharon keeping fingers crossed

then and hoping she wins.

[crispini]

166. Hey Sharon, best of luck to you back there.

I can't sleep either, I am dying to see about the Senate.

[SharonRB]

169. Looks like we pulled it off

in the Senate.

We also took back our state House and maybe the Senate to give our re-elected Gov Granholm a legislature she can work with.

[ralps]

159. Hi Everyone!! Yay!! We got the House Back!! & Maybe the Senate too!!

although Bryan Kennedy lost to James "Kotex" Sensenbrenner!! I guess Senlessbrenner will have to deal with John Conyers as Head of the Judiciary Committee!!! LOL :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[crispini]

161. OMG senate I would plotz a chicken

I mean jeez.

[CC]

167. Hi Ralps, there is always a silver lining

on the cloud.
Wonder how many more will be in trouble in the future once the dems are running things.

[RevCheesehead]

168. Hey, ralps!

KAGEN WON!!! :bounce::bounce:

[SharonRB]

171. Hey, Rev

I see you can't sleep either.

They just showed Michigan again and I see Nancy is still down 8 with 78 percent reporting. I wish they'd get it done already. I can't stand it anymore.


ooooh. Tweety just told KO he's as good as Edward R. Murrow!

[RevCheesehead]

187. I heard him say that!

I kept the TV on MSNBC all night, and watched until I fell asleep. :)

[ralps]

177. Yay!!!! Way Cool!!!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

164. They Just Did A Special Comment Promo

They said...."Special Comment. When Keith Olbermann talks, people listen."

[SharonRB]

170. That was the first time I saw that, too

I love it!

[Janice325]

172. Hoo boy!! It's almost 3am

I think Tweety is getting ready to leave!!!
Or not?????
Dear God in Heaven, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
:cry:
No Keefe!! Maybe they let him go home early because he didn't have anything to do.
Still Tweety, dammit!

[Berry Cool]

173. No, sadly, it is KEITH who is leaving...

...doesn't that figure?

Now Tweety gets to bloviate to his heart's content without having to talk over Keith.

I'm going to sleep.

Sheesh.

[Janice325]

175. Gosh, BerryBush!

:hi:
Wow, what a waste of Keith's talent. I guess I'll stay up a few more minutes to see about Montana.
A question. Has anyone else read or heard anything about Allen being behind the robocalls in Virginia?

[Cassandra]

179. I'm glad I only let my tape run to about 2:30am, in that case.

Keith has some serious reporting to do tonight and I'd rather he get some sleep (I quit at midnight). I'll be listening for him on the radio and report back.
I thought Keith looked a bit intimidated (and perhaps annoyed) at Tweety's non-stop style. You don't have to stop talking if you don't care if you're just making up shit. Saying something intelligent requires thinking and speaking carefully.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

174. Good Morning & Good Luck

A donut for Tweety on his way out.

[CC]

178. Off to bed but before I go

a gift to the KOEB and DU. Enjoy.:evilgrin:

[Janice325]

185. Oh, fuck!

I finally go to bed around 4am and Tweety's still on. I wake up at 9am, and Amy's on. Yay. Also David Shuster and Craig Crawford. Double yay!!
Then I find out that Tweety, with all of 3 hours of sleep, is gonna be back on for commentary when Dimson makes his speech at 1:00. Big fucking woo!
The icing on the cake (:sarcasm:) is hearing Rita Gargles with Razors. She's "interviewing" Delay. I finally had to turn off the television to give it a rest. The poor thing's been on since 4pm yesterday.
See ya'll tonight for Keith! :grouphug:
Maybe I'll get a bottle of Night Owl Shiraz to drink tonight.
I wonder if Keith would make Tweety WPITW tonight. Hmmm. Ya think?
Ciao.

[RevCheesehead]

188. I LOVE the way you think!

:evilgrin:

[Janice325]

190. Thanks, Rev!

Maybe it's got something to do that I was born in Richmond, Virginia, lived in Shorewood, Wisconsin, amd I was baptised in a United Methodist Church.
Good folks hang around here, huh? :evilgrin:
Gotta see about trying some Night Owl Shiraz without staying up to 4am this time.
Whoa, Rumsfeld is resigning
Catch ya'll later tonight.
