Tor and Viktor wrap up the 2006 U.S. mid term elections. Listen to the show and learn how Republicans used rooms of robots to phone and confuse unsuspecting Democrats in a last ditch effort to stop the wave of Democrat wins. The Tank Team asks why people are still voting for Joe Lieberman. They take a look at why Howard Dean's 50 state solution did work.
