The libs will claim victory
even though they lost, again, this time in special election to fill the congrerssional seat formerly occupied by Duke Cunningham. This was supposed to be the bellweather, the turning of the tide, the moment that Americans, in their righteous indignation, would start the process that would end with a Democrat landslide in the fall, throw the Republicans out and restore the libs to their rightful control of the House--Speaker Pelosi, etc. Oops, nevermind. The libs will claim a symbolic victory, the MSM will pretend the defeat never happened, and then on to the next bellweather, the turning of the tide . . .

You can't deny that, can you? American is ready to show that it wants another thing. You know, something. [This is how I imagine the hard left would be trying to spin it, I suppose]
