Webb Watch

Virginia Democrat Senate candidate James Webb claimed victory on Wednesday and effectively began picking out curtains and couches for his new Capitol Hill office. The AP declared Webb the winner that night. But there's a catch. Incumbent George Allen, a member of the Senate Republican High-Tech Task Force, has not conceded defeat. The eyes of the nation are on the Old Dominion State today.

Meanwhile, our managing editor Danny Glover wrote about Democratic netroots winners, Rightroots losers and reactions from bloggers on his Beltway Blogroll.

Update: In his concession speech Thursday afternoon, Allen brought up the Internet taxation issue. He introduced S. 849 in the 109th Congress, which would make permanent a ban on state and local taxes on Web access.
