Nov. 3rd Election Follow-up

A Republican landslide in Virginia!

A Republican upset victory in New Jersey...overcoming the massive Democratic majority and huge spending by Mr. Corzine. (Personally I can't see why anyone would want the job...the state is a disaster.)

Conservative Party candidate Hoffman has dropped the possibility of a recount in the New York 23rd Congressional District special election. With only a few absentee ballots left to count...Democrat Bill Owens appears to have won the seat by a margin of about 3,000 votes. Hoffman has announced plans to run for the seat again in the Nov. 2010 election.

As a side note...the district will cease to exist after 2012 due to census re-apportionment.

Obama Troop Decision Finally????

Obama plans to finally make a decision regarding an expansion of U.S. forces in Afghanistan...supposedly to be announced after the Thanksgiving Holiday.

If U.S. Commanders think they may need more, they better ask now...at the rate Mr. Obama makes military decisions...if they want more men before his term is over, they should ask now!

Looking glamorous in an elegant strapless gown by Indian-American designer Naeem Khan, Michelle Obama welcomed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his wife Mrs. Gursharan Kaur to the White House Tuesday night and ushered in the Obama administration's first official state dinner.

My compliments to Mrs. Obama...I'm not a fan of her sense of style - generally speaking I don't think she looks very good and that her wardrobe is a disaster...but tonight for the Administration's first State Dinner she looked very stylish and classy. I think she looked great representing the nation as First Lady this evening.

Nov. 3rd Election Predictions...

My predictions on the elections later today:

McDonnell(R)will cruise to an easy victory over Dem. Deeds in Virginia

Hoffman(C) will win in the New York 23rd...in spite of the RINO endorsing the Dem.

Corzine(D) will squeek by in NJ...thanks to the 3-way race, millions of dollars spent by Corzine and a 700,000 Dem. majority in New Jersey. Christie should be happy to lose...New Jersey is a mess and no Republican should want the job. Christie will end up well positioned for a future Senate shot.

Atlanta electing a white mayor? Could actually happen!
