And still another heavily Republican district goes BLUE...

...and this one wasn't even close...

We have witnessed tonight a momentous election with far-reaching implications for the country -- in Mississippi, where the Associated Press is projecting that Democrat Travis Childers has won the special election for the open GOP House seat.

With 90% reporting, Childers leads 52%-48% -- and with the strongholds for GOP candidate Greg Davis mostly in, and some of Childers' stomping grounds still out. And all of this happened in a district that went 62%-37% for President Bush in 2004.
The Republicans even flew in Deadeye Dick Cheney to campaign for their loser candidate...to no avail.

Democrats now enjoy a 235-199 majority in the House of Represntatives, far more than the Republicans ever enjoyed in their 10 years of control...
