Democrats are celebrating in Washington tonight! Nancy Pelosi (soon-to-be Speaker of the House, who will be the first woman in U.S. History to be two heartbeats away from the presidency) celebrates with Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who may also experience a change of title!Dems have won the House tonight, and still have a shot at the Senate, as Jon Tester and Claire McCaskill lead in Montanna and Missouri, respectively, and Jim Webb celebrates a VERY narrow victory in VA, which will almost certainly be subject to a recount (George Allen may ask for one, under Virginia law).
While it may be days or weeks before we know who runs the Senate, the balance of power in Washington changed tonight, in a big way, and Americans showed the world that we disapprove of the arrogant Republican regime which has done so much harm to our country and the world.
As of this hour (1:29am Nov 8), Dems lead in MI & MO, and have won in VA. For CNN senate election results, click here.
