Congrats, Dems. You won the senate race. Of course, if people really knew who Ken Buck and Michael Bennet were, they would have chosen Ken hands down. You successfully managed to use the corrupt Dem machine to take down a good man and replace him with a dishonest patsy. Welcome to politics as usual (or worse than usual).
However, on the whole things were good for Republicans. We won 4 out of 7 U.S. House seats, and took the state House too. Yes, we won. Recounts aren’t going to change that. So in the larger sense, my goals were achieved. The revolution has been started, and you can bet we’ll be gunning for you in 2012 and 2014. Sadly, there’s nothing can be done about the senate and governor’s spots for four years. Change takes time, but it will come.
As far as Pols goes, it has been my honor to serve in the trenches with H-man, colawman, Libertad, Laughing Boy, marilou, JLD, No2Dems, etc (apologies if I forgot someone). I also appreciate the half-hearted agreement on a few things from some of the lackluster moderates. I’ll be around in the future, but you probably won’t see much of me on this site for a while. As many before me who no longer comment have probably discovered, the abuse on this site is very unpleasant. I was glad to take one for the team during the elections but I have no desire to subject myself to continuing harassment, especially given the fact that there’s not much I can accomplish here. If you’re a diehard fan and can’t live without your Beej fix in the morning, you’ll be able to find me frequenting more friendly haunts such as PPC (www.peoplespresscollective.org), RedState (www.redstate.com), and facebook. How will you know who I am? Right, like that’s any big secret. I’m sick of being outed.
And V-ger, your check is on the way. I’ll just send it to your place of work unless you’d like to give me a different address.
