#5 All the MSM-wishful thinking articles about how it's the end for Trump are now sent to Room101 and this result will be downplayed.

#6 Pubs are doing well in the special elections after Trump election. If the Pub Congress gets behind Trump and achieves significant legislation, cleans up the corruption from the last administration, and pulls the plug on all the B.S., time-wasting, Russia investigations, witch hunts and hearings, they might even do well in the 2018 midterms.

#7 If Ossoff had won it would've been "The End Of Trump™!". Now it's an excuse-fest: weather, wavering magnetic poles, Russians, Climate Change, had to get their hair done....

#9 All those millions from California and New York... gone.

Ya know, you could have bought over 850,000 school lunches for poor kids with that money.

Just sayin'....

#11 Ya know, you could have bought over 850,000 school lunches for poor kids with that money.

The Democrats paid local sales taxes on their purchases, the property owners they rented their headquarters from paid property taxes, and every penny they spent in the state and the district will now recirculate several times there -- that's what Americans do better than just about anyone, I've read. The kiddies will get their lunches, and they will taste all the better for not having to meet Mrs. Obama's gentrified standards.

#13 All those millions from California and New York... gone.

No, no, redistributed, voluntarily without direct government coercion. If it wasn't the Trump era boost in the stock market, this might have made a hit in all those portfolios and trust funds.

#14 Is it just me, or the Dem's just fail at creating their own Milo? They so like boys, yes? What the heck did they think would happen, even among their own.

#15 I take it the donks spent most of the money on TV ads? And probably all it accomplished was to piss off the poor TV viewers who had to sit and watch. I would suggest they concentrate their efforts on coming up with a platform that appeals to taxpayers and voters but I know that won't happen.

#16 A friend who lives there told me he was getting phone calls almost 24-7. First robo calls and then call centers from out of state. They wouldn't take Hell no and stop calling me for an answer. He said they were calling everybody. Really pissed people off. He's a fellow Auburn graduate and a contributer to VodkaPundit.

#17 Democrats Seethe After Georgia Loss: ‘Our Brand Is Worse Than Trump’

BWAAAAHAHAHAHA

#18 An interesting tidbit from Bevis's link. Putcher rubber gloves on - it's the NY Times.
Any Democratic leader would become a target for the right, said the aide, Drew Hammill, Ms. Pelosi’s deputy chief of staff.
“Republicans blew through millions to keep a ruby red seat and in their desperate rush to stop the hemorrhaging, they’ve returned to demonizing the party’s strongest fund-raiser and consensus builder,” he said. “They don’t have Clinton or Obama so this is what they do.”


The Pubs don't count Trump as a spokesman, but they *do* lack the millstone of Pelosi or the anchor of Obama.

#19 At least Ossoff proposed to his girl of 12 years, it's reported. So, how does that make you feel, miss, knowing that you're his second choice after he loses getting a congressional seat? Hmm?

#20 So he lost the election and had to propose to his long-time girlfriend? Ouch?

#22 Don't forget, Democrats have tried to create their own Rush too. And it failed miserably and provided Rush with lots of ready material for hilarity.
