Dear tea partiers

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Thanks so much for delivering the NV, DE, and most likely, CO senate races. We, literally, could not have done it without you. Please keep nominating your fine candidates. Sarah Palin would make a great GOP presidential nomineee.

x memphis

So KY and FL were guaranteed pub victories without any Tea influence?  And what about all the House seats memphis?  Governor races?  Local races?

I was going to say your posting sounded smug, but it cries of frustration.......but you're not alone this morning.

It's just a wing of the pub party, and the pubs cleaned house last night.

This tea party nonsense has got to stop if the Republicans want to keep winning elections.  Last night was proof and should be a wake up call.  The GOP should have won so many more races than they did, but they lost because of the tea party.  They may not have won the senate, but they sure would've been a whoooole lot closer had these fools never been nominated.

Really?

Dear Tea Partiers

Thanks for delivering us the worst speaker on the earth for the Senate.

Shukran.

I am going to... respectfully... ask the Senate... to deliberate... on ... that.

Good, I'm glad you paid attention.....you'll have another 6 years of him to find more things to mock him about.  Have fun!!!!!!!

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Yeah, enjoy your useless Senate majority.

It's not useless Morgan, in all honesty.  Think judges, trade agreements, etc....  But I don't buy his argument the GOP got screwed.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

I'd bet Stenny Hoyer is the happiest man in Washington now since he won't have to deal with the Queen as Speaker.....
