Senate Democrats to declare majority

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid and some of his top lieutenants will hold a 2:30 p.m. ET Capitol Hill news conference to mark Democratic majority control of the chamber.

This declaration comes as the Virginia Senate race remains unresolved. The Associated Press has declared Democratic candidate Jim Webb the winner, but CNN has not yet projected a winner.

1. Exactly. Take the Bush approach.
Webb won. He declared it. We're celebrating it. He got more votes than Macacawitz did.

If Macacawitz refuses to concede, and keeps demanding recounts, we tar him as a crybaby. We send people to his Senate office to pound on the door and say "GET OUT OF JIM'S OFFICE!" We hang the "WAAAAAllen" signs everywhere.

Hey, the Republicans loved it when they did it. Sauce for the goose....

2. Now that's what I'm talking about! So when do we get the announcement that Dubya is
having a presser at 2:25 with "very important announcements"?

3. I'm still pinching myself to see if I'm awake!
Is this really happening?
