Leading indicators

From Reuters:

NEW ORLEANS (Reuters) - A Louisiana Democrat won a special congressional election in a district held by Republicans for more than two decades, increasing her party's majority in the House of Representatives, results from the state showed on Sunday.

State Rep. Don Cazayoux narrowly defeated Republican Woody Jenkins for the seat in Louisiana's 6th Congressional District, which includes part of the capital city of Baton Rouge.

This one has to scare the RNC and almost anyone running on the GOP ticket in 2008. The 6th CD has not seated a Democrat in over 30 years. If we are winning on their field, particularly some very, very Red turf such as this, the folks running in marginal districts must be freaking out. Congressional Republicans could be(fingers crossed) in for some tough sledding this fall.
