Domenici Quits

by BooMan
Wed Oct 3rd, 2007 at 08:33:15 PM EST

With the news that Pajamas Pete Domenici is retire from his New Mexico Senate seat, the Dems march closer to the magical filibuster proof number of '60'. Whether it is green developer Don Wiviott or a more well known New Mexican pol, the Dems have to be favored to take this seat. Add it to New Hampshire, Virginia, Minnesota, Colorado, and Oregon.

The more old-time Republicans that retire the more it incentivizes those that remain to follow suit.

The shithammer is coming down on eight years of the worst governance in our history.

don't count those chickens quite yet Boo! Tee Hee!!!!!
BTW- Richardson- a shoo in. That means that the dems will fuck it up. He should stay in until it is apparent that is over. Announce that his run was over. Then announce for Senator!
