Mitch McConnell now knows what it is like to run against a strong Democratic candidate that didn't have to invest her own millions into her campaign. I am quite proud of Alison. She ran a clean race and has her reputation intact today.
When the Republican Party came after Majority Leader Reid is was shameful and ruthless. Now the Minority Leader knows what if feels like, but, the Dems did it so much better.
It is incredible to believe a man would invest $1 million or more into his own Senate race. The income from the job just doesn't justify it. Power. Mr. McConnell is about power, people beware.

Now that the North Carolina polls have closed, it is noteworthy that Kay Hagan has run a spot on campaign. North Carolina under McCrory and Tillis and Pope has cut to the bone the support for education. The Republican legislature and governor raised the salaries for newly hired first year teachers because they have to compete nationally for them, but, have not raised salaries for other teachers. Mind you, the teachers purchase their own school supplies and this year some teachers didn't have school books.
In Guilford County where the total cuts over these few years has totaled $46 million there was a referendum to increase millage on property tax. Ready for this? A quarter of a penny. That means a property/home worth $100,000 will have to pay another $250.00 per year in property taxes. There are dearly few homes in Guilford County under $135,000. This millage tax if passed will bring $14 million into the Guilford County school system, but, does nothing for any university.
The Kochs have not been around to fight this millage increase as they were in Ohio for the zoo.
Senator Hagan ran an admirable race. It was nothing but truth and continued ads to clarify lies made about her by the Tillis camp.

Minority Leader Pelosi carried her share of the US House with only a few seats lost. Congratulations. Great job.

Tom Wolfe has won the Governorship back. He did it by running on education. Corbett was a horror. He was not only a horror when it came to education, it paid his cronies favors by destroying air and water quality due to fracking wells. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think the Democrats ran incredibly wonderful races, every one of them, against all odds they should have never been contenders in the first place. Amazing. Can we cook or can we cook?
