Allan Concedes -- Dems Control Congress

Allen.

Not that anyone needs to bother remembering the spelling of that particular name anymore.
 
Holy Christ, I can't believe I picked this guy as my darkhorse candidate for winning Republican nomination in '08. What a political prognosticator! I thought his intelligence was merely on par with Bush -- the GOP likes'em dumb -- but then he had to make that Macaca remark.

He really is gifted, though. He took what was once hailed as "a near certainty" and converted into a probability, then a possibility, then a failure. In the inflatable life raft of politics, Allen is the one flailing around with a barbecue fork.

I'm reminded of an ancient Peanuts strip where Lucy strikes out, then Schroeder, then Charlie Brown. Lucy and Schroeder point at him and say, "You lost the game for us!"
 
Hey, Allen should be given credit for managing to split the Virginia Republicans completely in half. Virginia one of the very few states to put mostly reps. on the House, so most rep. voters split their tickets over him. What a feat!
 
Wait...I thought that the Legislature was made up of the 'Senate' and the 'Congressional House'...

Sheesh, I need to go back to high school.
 
Congress = Senate + House of Representatives
Congressman = A person who serves in the House of Representatives, NOT a person who serves in the Senate.

It's quite baffling, really.

I frequently drive on the grass anyway. So much more convenient than waiting in line at a stoplight. And it's safer, too, because of the soft landing for the pedestrians I run over.
