What a night! 99% of precincts reporting and James Webb now leads George Allen by about 2,500 votes.
Mixed feelings on this one. A while back I hoped that George Allen would hold himself together long enough politically to challenge John McCain for the Republican presidential nomination (and win).
Dems stand a much better chance against George Allen than John McCain, but Allen seemed to be self-destructing too early.
If Dems take Virginia and Montana — while keeping Maryland which CNN still projects Dems will win — if my vote count is correct (and it’s late) — then I think the Dems get 51 seats in the Senate.
Wow. Need to go count again.
