Rick "The Crook" Scott is now our governor, and Rubio is our senator.   :thumbdown: Once a Republican state, always a Republican state.  :hammer:
Honestly, Sink did her best, but less than 50,000 votes away... oh well. Im towards democratics myself but for the senate I went for Christ. Good job to both though  :)

@Martin's reaction to my statement about California.

I must have confused a few people. I'm saying I'm surprised that for a while, the republican candidate put up a strong fight against Boxer. I'm not surprised at all that California kept a Democratic senator.
Ohhhh :P that makes sense!

I'm so glad it's over with.  It's nothing but, personal attacks, saying what you want to hear to get your vote and everyone of them is a damn liar.  I did not vote.  They only care about one thing, themselves.  :thumbdown:

I know it's WAY early, but does anyone have an idea of the 2012 Presidential candidates?

I doubt Obama is going to be one of them.

I'm hearing rumors that Sarah Palin wants to run for president. (totally doubt that.)

She seriously is not fit to be President and no I'm not saying that because she's a republican, she acts more like she's a celebrity than she does a serious politician to me.

Why are you doubting that? At this point it would surprise me if she didn't run.

Here is what Sarah Palin is doing... she is neither denying nor confirming her presidential run because she knows she can keep up the media hype and interest that way. There is no way she will win a presidential run and everybody knows that. She really is a somewhat clever person and knows how to make $$$ off of her political views. I think she is smart enough not to run for office.
she acts more like she's a celebrity than she does a serious politician to me.
So does Obama in that regard. Appearing on The View, The Late Show, The Daily Show, Mythbusters, Oprah isn't very presidential imo <_<

In other unrelated election news.... Keith Olbermann has been suspended  :worship: :worship:

True on the fact that I don't really understand why he would appear on The Daily Show, but it's not like he's the first politician to appear on a late night show.Ana was talking about Palin, not Obama which is why I brought that up. She can't even give a straight answer about a 2012 run, she has to beat around the bush by saying stuff like "Oh, I don't know if no one else better is running, I think it's something I should do." Either you want to run or you don't.

Either you want to run or you don't.
He is the first president to do so many talk and tv shows though. Anyway you missed my point. If Palin comes out and says "Yes I am running" or "No I am not running" political interest in her would go way down. By not admitting what she is really doing she keeps the media suspense and hype around her going strong. Its a political move so that she stays in the spotlight and people keep talking about her.

I find the left's obession with Sarah Palin (and other female conservatives) to be quite fascinating (and often hilarious). I swear, this woman can't do anything without them blowing a gasket. Listening to some of them, you'd think she was the queen of the United States or something. They obsess over her "tweets," analyze her new haircut, and hyperventilate when she spends more than a dollar on anything. Who cares!? She's just a woman that has helped a few candidates win. She has no power over anyone's life. None!

And as for whether or not she will run for president. It's two years away. It's a big decision to make. I wouldn't expect any rational politician, except the maybe the current president, to decide something like that so early. If and when she decides to run, we can talk about it. But until that happens, let it go. :)

I would have liked the Democrats to retain both the house and the senate, but you can't get things you're way everytime. I think a lot of Democrats screwed themselves over, by not rallying behind the President fully, and in many ways, echoing the attitudes of the right.  :club:  However, I am still very glad the senate is still in Democratic power.   :) The Republicans have been talking a lot, so it's up to them to (literally) put their money where their mouths are.
