Senate Dems Declare: "We Won . . . Now Try to Take It Away"

T
aking a page out of Jim Baker's 2000 election playbook -- written exactly 6 years ago today!!! -- Jim Webb and Claire McCaskill have gotten out in front and declared themselves the winners.

It's 1:55 a.m., eastern time, and McCaskill -- still with 15% of the vote to count -- has just given a victory speech.

Webb declared victory after Allen called the election "interesting." It looks like 2000 votes, out of about 80 million cast for US Senators, will decide control of the Senate.

One final thought. NO MORE ELECTIONS ON NOVEMBER 7th!!!
