Dipping in the BOTWT well again, we note this line missing from the
morning’s coverage of California’s special election, which Brian
Bilbray won 49.3% to 45.5%.
“The balance of the vote went to an anti-immigration independent and a libertarian.”
That’s
5.2% of the voters who may disagree with each other, but are unlikely
to trust Harry Reid more than they trust Bill Frist. If this election
is the bellwether we were told it would be, Nancy Pelosi may be more
worried today about remaining minority leader come January than about
becoming Speaker of the House.
