“Shalala, 77, was seen for a time as a weaker-than-expected Democratic nominee…”

“…by obscenely-paid, pompous jackasses on Sunday mornings who smugly phone it in week after week.”

Carville was on MSNBC saying there is no blue wave. Talk about a downer.

There is, but there seems to be a corresponding Hate wave as well.

It just went up on Livewire. I just looked at 538 and the results rolling in there don’t look like a wave either. We do still have polls open in MST and PST time zones though.

Interestingly Floridians chose a former Cabinet Secretary and academic over a talking head.

This is Carville’s full quote. Don’t despair. He’s just one of a thousand talkers/pundits standing by to give their personal view. For the record right now Dems have gained two House seats and Rs have lost two.

“It’s not going to be a wave election. It could still be a good election… but, we’ll wait and see.”

The pundits on the TPM twitter feed think the Dems will still get the seats needed to take the house. I’m going with that. Things were looking discouraging for awhile but they say we’re doing what we need to. They’re reporting the 7th Dem pickup in Florida.
