In VA McCain had a sizable lead until they started counting NoVa counties. He lost. In MN Coleman had a sizable lead until the started counting MSP counties. He will lose. In GA, Saxby had a very large lead until the started counting Dekalb County (inner city Atlanta). Saxby lost (went below 50%). In each case the pattern was the same. Count the rural votes first. Then see how many urban votes are needed. Then make sure there are enough votes there. Georgia will go blue in the run-off...and it will be a squeaker with 2000 votes found in the car of a poll worker. Let’s see…

Chambliss should not take this win as a confirmation that "the people" agree with him. If there had been another Republican/conservative, he would have been voted out. Expect a very light turnout.

It is the same principle at work here as the GE: you know what the other side wants to do, even if they lie. The Dems have had an easy time with Bush, and they know it. It was a symbiotic relationship - one let him do as he pleased as long as he spent money and gave them more reasons to stay in power. "It's Bush's fault" has worked well for the Dems, and Bush went along with it. Think about what a filibuster-proof Senate means, though. Chambliss is still an R, and maybe a brush with death changed his worldview. This last election was comeuppance enough for Chambliss.

They are conservatives who didn't like the fact that Saxby went off to Washington and forgot he was wokring for the people of Georgis not the Washington insiders. Most of these people will probably either vote for Saxby or just stay home during the run off. I don't see Martin picking up any sizable percentage amount of thr third party votes. Unless too many disgusted Republicans stay home Saxby should win. A very large number of people voting for the third party were protest votes reminding Saxby who he is supposed to be working for.
