Bush Political Capital Account: NSF!
Charlie: help fix this country!
I guess using a premature announcement in the Saddam trial as a last gasp effort at a "November suprise" (coupled with the irony of the GOP's e-voting chicanery unexpectedly (?) backfiring on them) wasn't enough for the GOP to prevail. I'm still of two minds as to whether Tuesday's results are a good thing or not though but I'll take it. You can get midterms news & analysis everywhere so instead, here's some select post-election news & views from various sites I f-cks with:
Nation of Thizzlam: Later, Alligators
Joey: It's Morning in America
Poplicks' ELECTION POST MORTEM.
1115.org on Bush: The Emperor Without His Clothes.
TTLab blog: "Minnesota just sent the first ever Muslim to Congress."
Oliver Willis on how Black Conservatives did in midterms 2006. Sorry about Harold Ford but props to Charlie Rangel and Deval Patrick too.
Bonus audio:
Barack Obama + Pete Rock = classic. BTW: how bugged is it that Obama has more (any!) Grammys than Pete Rock? (spotted via Rizoh)
