SHOW ME STATE. CNN just projected Claire McCaskill as the Senate victor in my home state, Missouri. What a night. –Sam Rosenfeld

THE GOOD OLD DAYS. Over at WJM…er, MSNBC, I think Ted and Chuckles just went off the rails. Chris Matthews had old Enron Ed Gillespie on, glumly chatting over the demise of a whole passel of GOP “workhorses.” (Aside — There has been nothing more fun tonight than seeing Republican strategists do live shots while […]

EXHIBIT A. Before the “Democrats Only Won Because They Ran A Bunch Of Republicans” meme gets set in stone, people should realize that the result in Tennessee pretty much obliterates a good piece of that theory.

HOUSE WON. CNN is calling it — the Dems have taken the House. –Sam Rosenfeld

CARCETTI WINS. Here. (Of course, O’Malley is totally not Carcetti. Not at all.) –Sam Rosenfeld

WEBB – ALLEN: EXTREEEEEEEEEEEMELY TIGHT. Take a look at this. Note who may lose this for Webb — the Green candidate. UPDATE: Commenters point out that the Independent Green Party, of which this candidate is part, is very different from the Green Party. –Sam Rosenfeld

DSCC chair Chuck Schumer‘s name came up. Lamont shook his head ruefully (ok, remember, this is secondhand — from Alec’s […]

TED STRICKLAND WINS. Jim McNeill did a really good piece for us today about the hoped-for resuscitation of the Ohio Democratic Party that gave a vivid impression of Ohio’s new governor-elect. UPDATE: Brown wins too. –Sam Rosenfeld
