Texas has improved - Gov. Rick Perry (he of coyote-shooting fame) won re-election handily, numerous state offices flipped from D to R, including my new state-representative-elect A-rated Paul Workman who defeated incumbent C-rated Valinda Bolton.
Sadly, "my" incumbent U.S. congressman, F-rated Lloyd Doggett (TX25) defeated a challenge from a good woman, A-rated Donna Campbell.
Too many parasites from central Austin voting in his district for those of us stuck on the edge of his district to oust him.
Sadly too, Reid survived.
Polls said he'd lose by 4%, he actually won by 5%. So much for the 3% margin of error claimed by pollsters.
U.S. House turned out about as expected - looks like around a 60 seat gain, give or take, with several more still too close to call. A pickup of 6 in the Senate, but we
might get another one or two if we're lucky. (I thought we had 41 before? They're projecting 46 now - that's +5. Did I miss a special election going to a D- or something?)
Wonder if Murkowski will actually win AK with her write-in campaign . . . "Write in" is leading Joe Miller.
Overall, a good night, even if it wasn't
quite the earthquake Dick Morris predicted.
