    Yes, Teaparty voted out Lugar opening the door for Donnelly. Lugar was leading 65-35 in early polls.

    Ahh very informative. Would love to hear from Establishment Republicans about how they feel about the TP-monster which they patronized.

    Tester seems like he has a decent chance to survive. Carmona might still have a chance - he's down 6%, but Romney's winning Arizona by 14% right now. If that margin narrows (and it seems like it would), that might push Carmona over the top.

    North Dakota is tied with the Dem leading by a tiny bit with Romney winning by 22%. This could be amazing night for Dems in the Senate if they can win all these close and ridiculously unlikely races.

    Elizabeth Warren giving her victory speech on NPR. I predict she will become a Republican "favorite".

    Michelle Bachmann and Allen West both in very close races right now. Taking out both would be huge coups for Dems.

    Allen West losing by 1000 votes (0.4%) with 97% reporting.

    Bachmann is up by 400 votes (0.2%), but it's early with 57% reporting.

    Steve King did win.

    But if they could take out 3 of the 4 crazies, that would be fantastic.

    Seems like the Tea Party movement is dead.
