Ladies and Gentlemen, this is what the permanent Republican majority looks like.
Resounding defeat in the House, and the nearly impossible task of taking the Senate looking ever more possible by the minute.
Tonight, we need to celebrate the House.
Tomorrow, we need to get into Virginia and "Raise some Kaine" to back our newly elected Senator Webb. We need to have the presence, and the confidence in our victory that this repugnant President showed in 2000. This repugnant man, who voters resoundly rejected tonight. Tonight we celebrate the fact that all of us who were so cynical that we didn't trust our neighbors to see the light were WRONG.
Tomorrow we fight.
Even after we secure the Webb victory, we will have many new tasks to undertake for 2008. But tonight we celebrate.
