Why is this good news? Both candidates are just as bad. Neither of them are pro-liberty.

Saxby winning isn't the good news. The numbers are, though.

I hate to burst your bubble, knightskye, but the liberals did get the 60th seat. :(

It was gonna happen no matter which of these two clowns won. This was a mock run-off election between same-sides, portrayed to the public as an actual and very important choice.

Ron Paul did say that the Republican party makes a better minority party than a majority party—Republicans tend to get lazy and careless when they hold a majority.

The Democrats may not have a partisan super-majority, but they'll still have a voting super-majority.

I'm sure it will be called "bipartisanship". Necons and neolibs working together against its citizens.
