What good men we have elected! It seems America is voting for QUALITY leaders – not the snake oil salesmen and self-serving egotists who occupy those seats now. Congratulations to our new PA Senators!

Are we talking US Civil war? There were as big or bigger Senate pickups in 1918, 1934, 1936, 1938, 1940, 1950, 1954, 1960, 1980: bit.ly/RTWIrs

This is a big loss for GOP. The GOP is no longer fpdealing with the lay down mentality of Mellow/Fumo. The GOP campaigns wasted money and were very deficient. Scarnati and pileggi better find a way to work together to deal with this.

At least three GOP gains in 1994, so the Civil War parallel is just absurd.

Unless the Civil War was in 1980, your operative is wrong. The Republicans picked up four seats that year, according to http://staffweb.wilkes.edu/harold.cox/legis/indexlegis.html
