Pelosi dismisses Dem losses in Virginia and New Jersey - Live Pulse - POLITICO.com The comments at the bottom of the article are awesome! "Funny thing is that Owens is a Blue Dog Democrat (conservative) and is against the public option, in fact the daily Koz endorsed Dede the liberal republican and went on a rant a few weeks ago bashing Owens for bieng to conservative. Had the contest been between Hoffman and Owens and not had Dede on the ballot as a spoiler, Hoffman would have won this. Lets also not forget that this seat is back up for election in 2010. Good luck Dems...LOL" "Nasty Nancy is an idiot..." "This woman is clinically insane. She is bat s..t crazy and bug s..t nuts. Wow." "What a twit. First of all, the last time a Dem held that seat was 1993, not the Civil War. As Bugs Bunny would say, "What a maroon!" "Nancy needs to lay off the controlled substances . . . ." "I just came back from DisneyWorld and I think I saw Ms. Pelosi in Fantasy Land !!"
