By BaxterRepublican Jim Tedisco has conceded to Democrat Scott Murphy in the special election to fill Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's former House seat (NY-20).
What a refreshing change — a Republican who recognizes reality.
Meanwhile, we're waiting with great anticipation to see how the party of "no" spins this. And of course, to see what Norm Coleman does. (Gee, let us guess....)
UPDATE: For further proof that the right-wing Republican base is marginalizing the party out of existence, the nutbags over at Free Republic barely got to comment #4 on the Murphy-Tedisco story before somebody said, "Curious that the Republican quit before every vote was counted in this race. He probably was a RINO like McCain."
In other words, at the same time that it's blazing away in a circular firing squad, the GOP base is shooting itself in the foot. We cats are in awe. What a feat of multitasking!
