Is any news outlet leading with the significant fact that the Dems just won a Congressional seat?

That no one in their right mind thought we'd EVER win? So we lost a couple Governors, we picked up a Federal lawmaker. Not a great trade off, but not a disastrous one. Obviously Maine was a travesty too. That's the worst news of the day IMO.

1. They won two Congressional seats.

The other one in Califoria!

2. The seat in California

was just a democrat replacing a democrat.

3. And the California 10th which was vacated by a Dem back in June

So we sort of got that one back. Two more votes for health care in the House. :D

6. A message to Obama and also the DNC

I miss Dean and his obvious fire in the belly. Kaine is a nice man and a dear friend to the president. But he just doesn't have what it takes, imo, to do the job now that the Repukes feel they have a chance to rebound. It's time to redouble the effort to get the new voters out in the off years. And Kaine failed. At least that's how I see it.
