After Democrats crashed and burned on Tuesday, their concession speeches didn’t seem to get much air time, at least on cable news. Some of them were actually gracious, others were typical arrogance from Democrats. And there was ungracious Alison Lundergan Grimes. Her ‘concession speech’ didn’t make one reference to McConnell, or mention if she called him to concede. Some of my favorites were Wendy Davis’ speech and Kay Hagan were she thanked her husband ‘Chip’ who got at least $250,000 in tax payer funded stimulus cash for his business. Yea Kay, I’ll bet you and him are thankful.

Not all Democrats were classless, arrogant hacks. Some, like Mark Uterus Udall and Mark Pryor actually showed some class in their concession speeches.

Maybe the most gratifying of the night came from ambulance chasing, oompa loompa Charlie Crist who’s ‘Fangate’ was supposed to put him over the top against Rick Scott for Florida Governor. So much for that.
