Also: [ahem] “See, I told you so.”
[UPDATE]: Welcome, Instapundit readers – and I assure you, I don’t ever want to get on Glenn’s bad side. I heard that he once linked a site in Reno, just to watch it crash…
This message goes out to every vulnerable Democratic Congressman representing a Republican or even centrist district – and after tonight, who among you is not vulnerable? It is a simple message: we can do this the easy way, or we can do it the hard way. The easy way is, you suddenly decide that you have a burning desire to spend more time with your families. So you don’t run for re-election, you walk off stage technically undefeated, and you go join a lobbying firm. The hard way is, you do run for re-election, and we pry you out of your seats.
We want to do this the hard way. We will enjoy doing it.
That’s your only warning. And remember: nobody is going to be able to save you. If the President, the DSCC, the DCCC, the DNC, the SEIU, ACORN, and the netroots couldn’t manage a win in Massachusetts… what do you think that they can do for you?

PS: To my readers… go have a drink. Go have a few. Celebrate. Tomorrow, we talk about how we’re going to take FL-19 and HI-01 away from the Democratic party.
PPS: More than a few people wanted me to mock specific members of the netroots in this post – but when I’m on my way to the main hall to deliver a message I see no reason why I should stop at the kennels along the way.

Oh man, I haven’t felt this way since watching the election returns in 94.
BTW, this should put to rest the ‘New Majority’ take that the Conservative wing of the Republican Party prevents them from the ability to win in New England, because we won’t support squishy moderates where applicable. I have zero problems with someone who’s probably to the left of most Texas Democrats for Massachusetts.
DO NOT forget TX 17. Chet Edwards lies through his teeth about his moderate positions, votes left unless he thinks he’ll be exposed, and still manages to win because Republicans refuse to run anyone except people like Scot McClellan’s mother. I didn’t even vote last time the opposition was so anemic. Yet even McCain won the district.
If I may quote Buffy the Vampire Slayer, “Now, we can do this the hard way or… well, actually, there’s just the hard way.”
Rock and Roll, Moe!
Bring on the next set of hapless, victims.

NY-29 is toast, too.
A star is born. Brown has “the touch”. Remember Slick Willy’s first convention address ? Big applause when he FINALLY said “…and in conclusion…”. Brown’s national launch is the polar opposite of that. And he’s got two HOT daughters…don’t discount the ability of THAT to attract voters who’ve never been inside the curtains before.
I giggle as I go to bed tonite. There IS hope.
The libs on TV LOVED calling the tea party folks “tea baggers”. They just couldn’t say it enough. It was SOOOO funny and naughty!
Who’s sucking scrotums this evening you….democrats?
It’s not all bad for Coakley. I bet she’s now the front runner for next year’s Nobel Peace Prize.
And just think, in only 147 days, the GOP might even have its next presidential candidate.
Hurrah!
“And remember: nobody is going to be able to save you. If the President, the DSCC, the DCCC, the DNC, the SEIU, ACORN, and the netroots couldn’t manage a win in Massachusetts… what do you think that they can do for you?”
Just to be FAIR (I hate it), remember that this caught the bad guys by surprise – all those orgs weren’t ready – y’know, like Pearl Harbor… so don’t get cocky. They’ll be ready for November, so keep your powder dry.
Robert, to my thinking it’d be much better to be the teabagger, than the teabagee. Just sayin’…
Love the music….I’d never seen the words translated before!
Had my drink (or 2 or 3) and a good night’s sleep. Gonna wear brown today and my American flag pin. Then I will be ready to look ahead.
Fortunately, Vic Snyder has already decided to spend time with his new wife and infant. I really didn’t want to vote against him this spring and fall. Thanks, Vic, for doing the honorable thing. Semper Fi…
Don’t forget Boxer. If we can flip Massachusetts, we can sure as hell flip California.
Boxer and Reid should be the two primary targets. Her because she’s just plain dumb and obnoxious and him because he seems to have reached his expiration date!
I think it’s safe to say that the dead voting in Massachusetts weren’t sufficient to bring off a Coakley victory. Scott Brown’s real margin of victory was probably more like 15% and they just underestimated how many to resurrect to make it happen! They won’t make that same mistake twice. They are venal, dishonest and altogether corrupt but stupid they aren’t!
I love it when you get all DeNiro-in-Casino on their asses.
