Celebrate!! We have the Senate!!
I am just back from the fabulous rally celebrating the election of James Webb to the United States Senate!! I saw RenaRF and teacherken and lowkell there! They were all so important to his election. And teacherken kindly gave me a sign to hold up! For all of us in Virginia, and for America: Thank you kossacks!!!
Here's a picture from
The New York Times:
I am only one of dozens of kossacks who volunteered for Jim Webb. Thanks to kos and lowkell and others for helping to draft him: the Senate would not be ours today without them. Thanks to them and to teacherken and vadare and to RenaRF and to so many other Kossacks for all their work for him. We would not be looking forward to having Pat Leahy in charge of the Judiciary Committee - and to being able to save the future of the Supreme Court in the event of another vacancy - without them.
God bless Jim Webb!! And thank you all so much - we are so thrilled in Virginia to be able, as our great Governor Tim Kaine said at the rally today, to have Virginia deliver the Senate to the Democrats!!
It was a GREAT day in the Old Dominion -- and YOU made it possible!!
