1. That is good news.

[barbtries]

16. i take it as good news as well

but many Democrats are crying foul and I have to say they have a good point.

Harris does not deserve to go to Congress. He knew what was up.

2. BS

That seat belongs to Dan McCready

5. EXACTLY

Why let a crook run for a seat??? FUCK HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[malaise]

7. I don't expect him to run again

The damage from this is immense. He's already bawling about medical problems - claimed he had two strokes and was complaining of memory loss (very convenient). These people are cynical enough to put up his son for office although I don't know if they will do it. Lets go Dems!! One more seat.

9. Wonder will this end here?

No charges for anybody? No jail time for anybody? WTF!!

[malaise]

11. People have to go to prison

Only that will make ReTHUGs think twice about stealing votes.

6. It was never going to be awarded to him. This is the next best thing.

Scandals like these tend to severely depress turnout for the party involved, and Democrats are going to come out in droves. I like our chances.

[malaise]

12. I was just stating a fact

I know this is next best and I expect Dems to win

3. Good. But not the best.

10. It's probably better he run than an untainted Republican.

His support is going to plummet.

13. I wish i could believe this.

He should be in jail!! (SOMEBODY should be in jail)

14. same candidates?

15. Terrible. They shouldn't get another bite at the Apple.

Republican cheated. Enough to swing election.

Only remedy should be: name Democrat the winner.
