Morsels of hope # 2

The narrow defeat of Paul Hackett in Ohio's 2nd congressional district (the epitome of a Republican stronghold) will hopefully augur a sound whipping for the Neocon death cult in 2006. Paul should be an inspiration to Bush oppositionists everywhere. Hackett, a major in the Marine Corps Reserve who spent seven months in Iraq as a civilian affairs officer, was trying to become the first Iraq War veteran in Congress and the first Democrat to win the district in three decades.

"This was a success. We should all be proud," Hackett told cheering supporters. "The voters of the Second District won because we gave them a choice."
