We’re through here until 10:00. We’ll be back on at 10:00.
It’s a rout. We need to start circling the wagons. What Texas needed was a candidate who was a witch. We could have gotten out the vote if we had a witch.
If you give a person a choice between voting for a Republican or voting for a Democrat who says he’ll vote like a Republican, they will vote for the real Republican every damn time.
The difference between Republicans and Democrats came better in focus for me tonight. Two years ago, I felt awe-struck over our victory. I felt the tremendous responsibility that brought. If my GOP counterpoint here tonight were any more smug, he’d drown in a rainstorm. I have felt the need to remind him that Newt Gingrich is now unemployed and Tom DeLay’s job is “defendant.”
