Yes, if Busby wins, it'll be enormous. But these guys are setting it up that if she doesn't win, it'll mean the Dems are really hopeless, after all. Wait and see if I'm wrong.
The fact is that's a very Republican district. Her success so far already is the earthquake. But I'll bet you if she loses, tomorrow they'll all be trumpeting, "The Republican party got a big boost yesterday with the election of Bilbray to fill Cunningham's seat."
