Bad Day: Altschuler Concedes In Last Unresolved House Race; Emmer Concedes In MN Gubernatorial Race

It's like magic. We always lose the close ones.

In NY-1, the Democrat Bishop keeps his seat. Damn it a ll.

Bishop's victory keeps the GOP net gain in the House at 63 seats.
That leaves the final breakdown for the 112th Congress at 242 Republicans and 193 Democrats. The 63-seat gain for the GOP is the largest for any party since 1948.

There were several lead-chages here -- Bishop was aheaad on election night, then additional ballots put Altschuler ahead, then recounts and challenges put Bishop ahead again.

At Hot Air, Mark Dayton, a true spazzmoid, has won the right to misgovern Minnesota the same way he misrepresented it, earning at one point the honor of Worst Senator from liberal Time Magazine.

2012 must be the year of Tanner Boyle.
