Republicans Retain 2 Vacant House Seats

While it would be foolish to attach too much significance to this, it HAS to be a real disappointment to SanFranNan Pelosi and her fellow House Donks.

Republicans maintained control of both congressional seats that were up for grabs in special elections Tuesday in Ohio and Virginia, disappointing Democrats who had hoped to extend their gains in the House.

In Ohio, a state representative defeated a Democrat making her third run for the seat. And in Virginia, a first-term state legislator easily won.

Hopefully a sign of things to come!
