    The “intelligent” conservatives began the hate for the Tea Partiers last night over at the HQ. You should host a “ten minutes hate” here, so the trolls can show their superiority.

    Sure Angle and O’Donnell were flawed. But conflating their flaws with the mess in California is anything but “intelligent.” Yet that’s what you’re gonna see a lot of this week.

    Also, look for the same crowd to begin attempts to elbow Palin aside for the always exciting Timmeh! Pawlenty. Whoa, I fell asleep a little bit just typing his name.

    On a night when Rand Paul (who was about as “poised” a candidate as Angle) crushed his opponent, while Reid and Boxer eked out wins, it’s obvious that this country is a patchwork and you can’t analyze the races like they are all horses on the same track.

    And by the way: Kudos to the axis of the Fedora for all your work in helping make this undeniable, sweeping mandate happen. When I get some money from all my commenting at low level blogs (I’m sure it will roll in soon), I plan on hitting the tip jar.
