... that's not really so great. Gabrielle Giffords's aide Ron Barber won a special election to serve out her term. This doesn't change the balance of power in the House one whit, so it's merely emotional solace after the defeat in Wisconsin.
Emotional solace matters, though. I have a strong feeling of doom about 2012, and I know that foolish adoption of the Teapublican agenda would be disastrous for America. A win, even a small, brief one such as this one by a Blue Dog, replacing another Blue Dog, is still a win, especially in a place as wild and woolly as Arizona.
So what's next?
Friday: Retail Sales, Industrial Production
