CBSnews.com is calling the Montana Senate race for Tester. Webb leads Allen in Virginia, but that is technically too close to call and a recount is almost certain. The Democrats neeeeeeeeed this last seat if they are to control the Senate.
In other news, Donald Rumsfeld is resigning. Rummy was, perhaps, the worst Secretary of Defense we have ever had, certainly the worst in my lifetime. I would imagine Bush will try to push his latest guy through the Republican Senate that still exists.
Right now, I'm so happy, I can't believe it. I'll update this post throughout the afternoon/evening.
EDIT: It's all over. The Democrats have taken the Senate. Hey, Senator Allen: Welcome to Loserville, Population: You, Asshole!
The victory is now complete. We have the House, the Senate, the majority of Governorships, and in 23 states we have the majority in both houses of the state legislatures. The Democrats are a one-party government (i.e., they control both houses of the legislature & the Governorship) in 15 states, the most either party has controlled sicne 1994, the year of the Republican Revolution.
No more stressing, no more counting votes, no more worrying about recounts (well - not for the whole party - although there are still a few House races that need to be finalized). The battle is over. We have met the enemy, and they are ours.
