YES, this is one of those seats where they tried to Swiftboat the candidate by tying him to Obama and Rev. Wright.

Mississippi, people.

First, Hastert's seat.
Then, the Louisiana seat a couple of weeks back.

Tonight, Mississippi.

This was it. The last ' argument' Hillpatine had against Obama to the SuperDelegates - his potential to be a ' drag' on downticket Democrats.

Childers WON a solid GOP seat in MISSISSIPPI.

Biggest election of the night.
