Posted on November 3, 2010 at 5:09amWhat a HUGE disappointment from the Nevadan voters. You guys deserve whatever Harry Reid doesn’t do to improve your state.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 5:02amI really wonder what went on behind the scenes when Nevada supposedly had an electrical problem delaying the results. If the people truly voted that DESTROYER back in when they have the highest unemployment and number of housing foreclosures, you really have to wonder about the people in that state. I feel bad for the people that voted against him.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 5:54amI will tell you about the people in Nv. CALIFORNIA REFUGEES!! That‘s why Nv went blue for Obama in ’08. They screwed up their own state and when they couldn’t afford to live there any longer, they moved to Nv. It was a big deal there in the ‘08 election. Same thing happened to Mt, Or, Wa, and Co. All used to be conservative until the fruits and nuts from Ca. moved in. Now it‘s Nv’s turn. Ca. progressives are a cancer in America. Of coarse the unions and others cheated too!

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 9:38amRational Man is right on the money. California is full of liberals and as he said, they screwed this beautiful State up and then ran to other States to continue their work. You have to wonder about the mentality of the voters in a State who is very close to going bankrupt and they continue to re-elect the same people who bought them to the edge of the cliff. The election of Jerry,Moonbeam, Brown is a real good example.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 3:18amThe Tea Party did some great things. Unfortunately, Ms. Angle (currently giving what might be the most pathetic concession speech I’ve ever suffered through) wasn‘t one of them so we’re looking at 2 more years of Dirty Harry as majority leader, possibly longer if the Republican Party establishment didn’t really learn anything from all this. I‘m skeptical but we’ll see.

I am completely lost as to the rest of the nonsense you posted unless you‘re one of those careless sorts who haven’t noticed that there are several people on this site using “contrarian” in their name and you’re confusing me with one of them. You wouldn’t be the first. I do find it ironic that I, as a lifelong conservative, would have the “socialist” label thrown at me by someone using “Norway” as part of their ID.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 5:41amActually, I agree with you Contrarian. It was a surprisingly gutless speech. However, Fiorina and Whitman also lost, and they were both strong candidates in a state that is practically bankrupt. How do you explain that?

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 11:06amI can only explain Whitman and Fiorina the same way many others do. California is Wacky Town. I have a cousin out there who described herself as a Libertarian while supporting Obama, for crying out loud. I don‘t think she’s really an aberration in that state.

He never got to 50% at any time during the pre-election polling. I think 47% was his best. I heard the electricity went out in Vegas for a while and delayed voting too. Ballots already pre- marked for Reid. Turning away the lines of people outside the polls in Elko because it was going too slow and the polls closed. I think Republicans got robbed!! The unions rule in Nv.

If the people were in line BEFORE 7:00 pm they must be allowed to vote. They are supposed to put a poll worker at the end of the line at 7:00 & let the people ahead of him in line at that time vote. I have been an inspector at a local polling place 4 times. I am not in NV but as far as I under stand a Fed election has that as a rule. Some one there needs to be held accountable. But I won’t hold my breath. Corruption rules in NV…
NV is as stupid as Commiefornia & AZ. Jerry Brown? Yer kidding! John McLame? I’m sick! Prince Harry? Lord have mercy on NV!! What a bunch of dumb dumb dummies!!!! who voted for these clowns…that is…IF they were elected without fixed machines.
Devvy Kidd at NewsWithViews has some great articles on vote fraud & what to do about it. .

I agree with her that we need to get rid of electronic voting machines & go back to hand counted paper ballots. If it takes longer so be it. I would rather have a longer time for honest results than instant machines that can be rigged. There are a lot of stories about fraud in many elections. There is a group that watches this stuff. I don’t remember the name of them ATM.
