So the spin is pretty predictable, that progressive populism is dead. Yet the brunt of the Dem losses? Blue Dogs. Maybe corporatism is dead? Or maybe the economy was toxic.
Update 1: And we lose WI-07.
Update 2: Colorado Springs delivered for Ken Buck, takes 3-point lead, or 31K votes.
Update 3: Dem House loses will be in the 60s before this is over.
Update 4: Dems lose a Blue Dog in AL-02. That means that 28 Blue Dogs have lost, 17 have held their seats. 11 still to be decided.
Update 5: The Connecticut for Lieberman Party officially died tonight. The candidate only got 0.5% of the vote. He needed 1%.
Update 6: Polls close in Alaska.
Update 7: SD-AL goes down. Another Blue Dog.
