This can’t be good news for Congressional Dems.
Republicans won an upset victory in a Democratic stronghold in New York on Tuesday in a special U.S. House of Representatives election for the seat vacated by former Representative Anthony Weiner, who resigned after a Twitter sex scandal.
Republican Bob Turner, a retired media executive who called the election a referendum on President Barack Obama, defeated Democrat David Weprin, a state assemblyman, a New York cable television station said.
More proof that some one has nonexistent coattails: Republican wins easily in Nevada special election. Hmmmm.
Oh, and here’s the new congressman in Nevada. Complete RIGHT WING NUT JOB!

It’s a shame, we could have used Weiner’s strong voice with this jobs bill.
Idiot…
Pity, just a fugging pity.
