Woo hoo!!!

1. Woohoo!

And I just got free banana pudding!

:woohoo:


I just had a bad thought though... will he join the blue dogs and increase their influence?

[Eyerish]

8. That's my thought too...

He was just jumping from a sinking ship. He'll have more power as a Dem now...it might also keep him from losing his position come next election. Sorry if this sounds cynical but just because he'll have the D after his name doesn't mean he'll be after our best interests.

2. SERIES?!?!

:bounce:

[Lil Missy]

3. Yes SERIES! Turn on the TV. HUGE story!!

[HopeHoops]

4. I already called the Harrisburg office to express my support!

This is perfect. Toomey can have the GOP nomination - Specter already has a solid base of independents and Democrats who support him so his seat is totally safe this way. Screw the GOP - they just lost one of the most influential people in Congress.

5. Reminds me of when Jeffords defected. Good times!!!

6. Almost Made Me THink It Was April Fool's Day

But it's real, WOW!

7. Came back from breakfast and it was on MSNBC!

Smart politics, that is what it is.

[Lil Missy]

10. I sure didn't either. But I am enjoying the devastation of the Repukes.

I love seeing the damned bullys suffer.

11. 60 proof?

What percent of alcohol by volume is that?

[Lil Missy]

14. Better than alcohol. Filibuster proof!

12. This is still pending Al Franken being seated

and, I'm sure the Republics will fight even harder for Normy Coleman now...

[Lil Missy]

13. Sure they will. But they will lose.
