More election news

This was posted on Hugh Hewitt's blog:

Rick Santorum has lost. No matter what good might might come out of tonight, Santorum going down is a body blow. Let's offer a hope that Santorum stays active in politics.

When Santorum stabbed his fellow Pennsylvania conservatives in the back by putting himself on the line for liberal RINO Specter I knew that his career in the Senate was over. There are some betrayals which one can not, and frankly should not, come back from.

Also on Hugh's blog:

On the bright side, Fox has labeled Lincoln Chafee a loser. I mean in the literal sense, that he's lost his bid to muck up the Senate for another six years. In other good news, Ned Lamont has lost.

Good news on both counts. Chafee, the man Ann Coulter described as "too stupid to know that he's a Democrat" was one of McCain's "gang of seven" who didn't need to be in the Senate.
