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!
