Attack me personally if it makes you feel good about yourself. Jump up and down and declare yourself a genius, but even the locals in NY 23 agree with me and NOT you cons!

The local media in the district agrees with me:

"Bill Owens pulled out an extraordinary victory in New York’s 23rd Congressional District against the extreme right wing of a Republican Party in disarray, making him the first Democrat to hold that seat since the Civil War."

"Democrat Bill Owens confounded the experts and defied more than a century of history as he won the three-way race for Congress from Oswego County and the North Country. Some parts of the 11-county Congressional district have not been represented by a Democrat since the end of the Civil War."

"Owens wins 23rd Congressional seat; first time for a Democrat in more than a century"

"Republicans have represented the 23rd for more than a century"

"For the first time since the mid-19th century, a Democrat will represent Northern New York in the U.S. House of Representatives."

So what is it? DO you know better than all the people of the entire New York 23rd? Get over your precious and fragile little egg shell egos and give this up It's played itself out.
