Seaspook’s Rants Fighting Global Warming - Cost/Benefit — “That’s a big problem with liberals like Goony Gore. They accept a premise without adequate evidence and make a commitment to action without regarding the consequences. Such behavior is not limited to environmental issues, it’s way of life with them.”
Dean’s World (Dean Esmay) Belleweather Election? — “Some have said that if Democrats can’t take this seat they can’t have much hope for winning control of the House in November. I think that’s probably a premature judgement, but it does make it look like it’s still an uphill battle. Congressional Republicans are not very popular right now, and a corrupt Republican had to resign and go to jail, yet voters in his district just sent another Republican to replace him.”
Don Surber Dems claim ‘moral victory;’ Republicans get real one — “I have been a Cleveland Indians fan as far back as I can remember: the summer of 1959. The team had six winning season in the 35 seasons between 1960 and 1993, inclusive. I know all about “moral” victories.”
Captain’s Quarters (Ed Morrissey) RCMP Foiled A Dozen Plots — “After 9/11, George Bush told Americans that this war would be fought on many fronts in many different ways. The Canadians obviously heard what he had to say. One could question whether simply spooking terrorists really stop attacks, or merely postpone them,. Since so much of their strategy involves secrecy and deception, a blown cover means that they and their entire network would have to be replaced before an attack could occur — an expensive proposition for a movement already working on the cheap.”

in these races. That is a lot of moral victories. But no real victories. And oh yes, over at Daily Kos, they already are arguing Republicans “stole” the election — another sign of losers.
