GOP Gets a Boost in N'awlins

New Orleans finally said goodbye to corrupt Democratic Congressman William Jefferson and elected GOP candidate Anh Joseph Cao, the first Vietnamese-American ever elected to the House of Representatives.

Republican John Fleming also won in Louisiana's 4th Congressional District, further solidifying the GOP's hold on the state.

Democrats remain confident that Cao is just passing through and that they will regain Jefferson's old seat in 2010. We'll just have to wait and see what unfolds.
