It won't change. In today's political arena you need 60 votes, not 51. American politics today is ran by oligarchs...



Yeah. shite won't change, but at least this "gives them a mandate".

I wonder if that line will be trotted out.

The Republicans are just priming themselves for 2016. Rand and the Republicans will sweep the country into power in 2016. They'll have 60 votes then.

Mandate? LoL. If Obama could win by HUGE margins and not have a mandate, picking up 6 or maybe 7 senate seats surely isn't a mandate.

North Carloina Early Vote

So what does early voting look like this year compared to 2012?
Here are the relevant 2012 statistics:

Democratic: 47.6 percent
Republican: 31.5 percent
18-29: 13.2 percent
30-44: 21.8 percent
45-59: 29.5 percent
60+: 35.5 percent
White: 67.40 percent
Black: 27.40 percent
Female: 55.90 percent
Male: 43.00 percent

Don’t read too much into the Democratic-Republican split, as North Carolina has a lot of legacy Democrats who are Republican for all intents and purposes (and remember, these figures are for party registration, not self-identification).
So how do things look in 2014?
Dem: 47.6 percent
Rep: 31.9 percent
White: 71.6 percent
Black: 25.0 percent
18-29: 5.1 percent
30-44: 13.7 percent
45-60: 29.1 percent
60+: 52.2 percent
Female: 54.2 percent
Male: 45.0 percent

That's not nearly enough


NH has more registered Republicans than it does registered Dems.

I haven't watched Fox news much since November 2012.

These people got really old really fast. Hume could barely speak. Krauthhammer looks like he may croak any second.

Wowza...that 60+ vote. The question is, was 2012 an outlier regarding these age specs. But, just looking at these 2 points in time it has to be good for Reps. However, Hagan still wins, right?
