GOP, Nutroots, Dems, American people all lose

The morning after...

Dems have the house, and the Senate is 49-49 with 2 seats yet to be decided but leaning left. Here's the scorecard:

Losers:

Democratic Party - The exit polls show that folks didn't vote for Democrats. They voted against Bush. This is indisputable. There's no mandate for the left no matter how they spin it.

Republican Party - lost big, no way to spin it otherwise.

Nutroots - The Kos "kiss of death" has a still unblemished record. The overwhelming slapdown of Lamont shows that unhinged isn't a winning strategy. Of course, they won't see it that way. The foul and unhinged Jane Hamsher uses a little creative transference to claim the defeat she contributed to is responsible for all the victories she had nothing to do with:

But the wave of Democratic victory that is happening across the country would not be happening if the Lamont campaign did not step forward and change the narrative for Democrats. Despite the fact that Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer and Bill and Hillary Clinton planted a big, fat knife in Lamont's back and sneered at Democratic voters, the the blue victories that are happening are a direct result of this battle.

The American people - Just wait and see - once their terms start, watch every single promise for civility fall by the wayside as they go for pocketbooks and the White House with a vengeance.

So, were there any winners? Yes. Now that the party of surrender is in charge, expect the terrorists to step up activities. Indeed, Hamas is calling for attacks against us as I write this. Expect this sentiment to spread as the world wakes up to Speaker Pelosi.

I'll have more later, but that's my impression after 2 cups of coffee.
