I am really loving this race.  If either candidate wins right now, the republican party loses.  With one, you lose a district which is a safe republican district to a liberal democrat, and with the other, you get a Todd Akin in congress who can run later for a senate seat and lose to another democrat.

Alcee Hastings has been in Congress for a long time.
Yeah, so.  Tonight I am not proud of my party.

I do think that she will keep this to about a 5 point race, since she is only under preforming by three percent for a win

71% is in and he's still "soaring" at 54% Tongue

But by going county by county, she right now is under preforming what Daily Kos said she would have to do in order to win.

Yes, the ultimate insult to him.  Be beaten on his former wife.

ECB Benchmark- ECB Actual
Beaufort: 49/50- 47/53
Berkeley: 47/51- 39/60
Charleston: 53/46- 49/50
Colleton: 35/65- 30/70
Dorchester: 49/49- 39/60
I really think she will get about 47-48%.  Even with those numbers.

Also, I wouldn't call a 9 Point Victory over a Liberal Democrat in a safe republican district a Soaring one.

She wasn't liberal though. She was against Obamacare and distinguished herself as FISCALLY CONSERVATIVE. Socially liberal, sure, but she sure wasn't a Liberal.
I was talking about the social aspect of it.
