OH-02: Hackett Speech

Posted by Bob Brigham

People are fired up! In 2006 Democrats are going to kick ass everywhere.

"Democracy was successful this evening"

"We raised over 400,000 online"

"We Americans have a choice, democracy is the benefactor and we gave that to them"

He sounds like a candidate who is kicking off a campaign, not ending one.

The Good the Ugly and the Bad is playing in the background.

"freedom is worth fighting for…and that's what we did over the course of the last four months, where else except for America could we put a plan together this quickly and have this much success"

"we need to stay focused and we need to stay proud and we need to say it loud"

"Realize we can take this to other regions of the country…"

"LET'S ROCK ON"

UPDATE (Bob) This will be the last post of the night, Tim and I are going to do some celebrating!!!!!

Swing State Project will soon return to the regularly schedule program of following all of the races across America. Thank you Paul Hackett!

Yes, Paul, thank you for showing that no matter how the stars are aligned, the American people will not accept liberalism. Thank you also for providing a victory for both sides. A real, tangible victory for conservatives and yet another "moral" victory for liberals.

You'll be accepting your moral victories soon SI...tick tock....tick tock...

You must be proud of your candidate winning by less than 4% in one of the most Republican districts in the state! Good stuff.

Your attitude fuels us...please keep it up!

You guys did an astounding job with this. I hope you are partying hearty. You deserve it.

As for Paul Hackett -- what can I say? I'm nuts for the guy. I sure hope he'll be back for the next round.
