That is a huge relief! And one more step forward. Will Georgia, and (is it?) Minnesota be so kind?
And is it wrong of me to hope that this is another chance for the Palin monster/idiot to disappear again into political obscurity? Or do you think "you can't take 'em back to Barrow once they've seen the big city?"
She's and Barr are both Naders of the Republican party...if you remember, Bob Barr went independent and was also on the Presidential ticket...balancing the odds. As long as she orbits the Republican party, she keeps making them look bad and should help keep the Right out of office for at least through the next two elections.
That puts us up to 58...just two more to go...the recount in Minnesota that is likely to put Franken ahead and the run off in December in Georgia that could also give us the magical 60 seats.
