Not looking too good for us this year that’s for sure. We are going to be looking at a Democrat majority for long while to come. And the Republicans only have themselves to blame because they blew their majority trying to consolidate power instead of governing as true Republicans in a fiscally responsible manner.

A longtime Republican district fell to the Democrats Saturday when a wealthy businessman and scientist snatched former House Speaker Dennis Hastert’s congressional seat in a closely watched special election.
Democrat Bill Foster won 53 percent of the vote compared to 47 percent for Republican Jim Oberweis. With all 568 precincts reporting, Foster had 52,010 votes to Oberweis’ 46,988.

Go ahead and gloat, lefties 🙂
