In Senate races, tea party favorites Rand Paul in Kentucky and Marco Rubio in Florida coasted to easy Senate victories, overcom ing months of withering Democratic attacks on their conservative views. But Christine O’Donnell lost badly in Delaware, for a seat that Republican strategists once calcu lated would be theirs with ease. Democrats conceded nothing while they still had a chance. “Let’s go out there and continue to fight,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi exhorted sup porters in remarks before television cameras while the polls were still open in much of the country. But not long after she spoke, Democratic incumbents in both houses began falling, and her own four-year tenure as the first female speaker in history seemed near an end. With unemployment at 9.6 per cent nationally, interviews with vot ers revealed an extraordinarily sour electorate, stressed financially and poorly disposed toward the presi dent, the political parties and the federal government. Sen.-elect Paul, appearing Tuesday night before supporters in Bowling Green, Ky., declared, “We’ve come to take our govern ment back.” About four in 10 voters said they were worse off financially than two years ago, according to preliminary exit poll results and pre-election surveys.

Paterno From Page 1 “We're fortunate that all of a sudden we got a couple of kids I think that can get the job done for us.” Paterno, who normally prefers playing only one quarterback in a game, said he'd be open to the idea of playing both this Saturday. Bolden suffered a concussion two weeks ago at Minnesota, and the coaching staff held him out of last Saturday’s win against Michigan for precautionary reasons The medical staff had cleared Bolden to play, however. Paterno said he believes Bolden is fully over the injury after talking to him on Monday. McGloin filled in for Bolden and finished 17-for-28 with 250 yards and a touchdown in the Michigan win. Bolden previously started every game for Penn State this season before he suffered the injury. Paterno said he wasn’t concerned about Bolden dealing with losing the starting job if it happened. He also said Bolden had pro gressed well before the injury and has a lot of future potential. pMiuil legian.com “That’s one of the reasons I’m Gift From Page 1 three gifts.

University Planner for Campus Planning and Design Steven Watson said his office is currently working with the administration to decide where the plaza will be built.

Roughly 40 percent of voters considered them selves supporters of the conserva tive tea party movement. Less than half said they wanted the government to do more to solve problems. The preliminary findings were based on Election Day and pre-elec tion interviews with more than 9,000 voters. All 435 seats in the House were on the ballot, plus 37 in the Senate. An additional 37 governors’ races gave Republicans ample opportunity for further gains halfway through Obama’s term, although Andrew Cuomo was elected in New York for the office his father once held. Republicans were certain of at least six Senate pickups, including the seat in Illinois that Obama resigned to become president. Rep. Mark Kirk won there, defeating Alexi Giannoulias. Democratic Sens. Russell Feingold in Wisconsin and Blanche Lincoln in Arkansas were turned out of office. In addition, Republicans scored big in races for Democratic seats without incum bents on the ballot. Former Rep. Pat Toomey won a close race in Pennsylvania, North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven won easily there, and former Sen. Dan Coats breezed in a comeback attempt for the Indiana seat he voluntarily gave up a dozen years ago. reluctant to get up here and say, ‘Hey, somebody beat him out,' because I’m not sure anybody has beat him out,” Paterno said. Approaching 400 wins No matter how many times reporters asked Paterno about 400 wins, he had no problem deflecting the questions. "I don’t go home and think about what we've done," Paterno said. “I go home and worry about what we've got to get done." Paterno said he doesn't think about the milestone and hasn’t talked to anybody about it. He said his focus is providing wins for his players, who are only in college for four years. He said he doesn’t pay attention to getting 400 wins because he’s been a coach for such a long time, the milestone is bound to come. Paterno is in his 45th year as head coach at Penn State. “You've got to win a couple of games in that time,” Paterno said. “I really don’t give it much thought. It won’t make much difference if I win 390 or 400.” Sympathy for Notre Dame Paterno addressed the tragedy Murphy’s former Penn State roommate Tommy McCann was in attendance at the announcement. McCann said the plaza will be an immortal shrine to a friend who was an “incredible individual.’’ McCann said he is still in close contact with friends of Murphy and said they all are excited about the plaza. ROTC program leader Michael Runey, who finished graduate stud ies at Penn State in 1999, said there are tributes to fallen veterans throughout campus, but it is rare to find one that highlights a single sol dier. caffeine can be dangerous because an individual may not realize how impaired they are, Linda LaSalle, associate director of educational services for University Health Services, said in September. The FDA investigation of alco holic energy drinks and the compa nies that produce them including Phusion Projects has been ongo ing since 2009, Witalec said. According to the FDA website, there are no regulations that address the addition of caffeine, at any level, to alcoholic beverages. The Daily Collegian Rand Paul Kentucky senator-elect “Republicans will continue to stand up for the American people and for the priorities they voted for today, and we are hopeftil that the administration and Democrat lead ers will change course,” Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell said in a written statement. Democrats averted deeper losses when Gov. Joe Manchin won in West Virginia after pointedly distanc ing himself from Obama for the unexpired portion of the late Sen. Robert C. Byrd’s term, and Attorney General Richard Blumenthal was victorious in Connecticut, dispatch ing Linda McMahon, former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment. Sen. Barbara Boxer was elected to a fourth term in California, overcom ing a challenge from Carly Fiorina. The GOP gubernatorial gains came after a campaign in which their party organization spent more than $lOO million, nearly double what Democrats had. Among the incumbents who fell were Ted Sfrickland in Ohio, defeat ed by former Rep. John Kasich, and Chet Culver in lowa, loser to former Gov. Terry Branstad. In California, former Gov. Edmund G. Brown Jr. was elected to the office he held for two terms more than a quarter-century ago. In a footnote to the brutal politics of the campaign, Republican turned- independent Lincoln Chafee was elected governor of Rhode Island. Obama campaigned in the state in the campaign’s final week.

Declan Sullivan, a Notre Dame football student manager, was on a scissor lift videotaping football prac tice in 50-mph winds when the lift toppled over and Sullivan fell to his death. Paterno expressed remorse for the student and others involved. Paterno said making sure man agers are in safe areas can be hard because they have so many tasks to do during practice. But there are certain things Penn State does to prevent that type of tragedy, he said. Paterno said he won’t practice outside in 35-mph winds or above, and Penn State often uses an over head camera to videotape practice. “That could happen to anybody,” Paterno said. “There are a lot of things that can happen.” NOTES: Paterno said corner backs Stephon Morris and Chaz Powell will compete for the starting spot ...

Senior Class Committee Overall Chairman Bill Witt (senior-biology) said he’s confident the senior class will raise more than $225,000 for the plaza. That would surpass the record set last year, he said. He said individuals in the commu nity are also welcome to donate. “It would be very exciting to have the senior class surpass the record by donating all or part of their security deposit,” Witt said. The drinks are typically sold indi vidually for $2.50 or $26 for a 12-pack. They appeal to college students because of the drink’s affordability, Witalec said. But even if money is tight among college students, recognizing the risk of the drinks is important, she said. “We’re responsible for making sure people know what it means to be responsible consumers of an alcoholic product,” Witalec said.
