Figure This Out

The seats of corrupt Republicans (Bob Ney, Tom DeLay, Curt Weldon, Don Sherwood, Mark Foley) were won by Democratic challengers. Corrupt Democrats, however (John Murtha, Willie Jefferson), were returned to Congress.

Figure that out.

The Joe Negron(Foley's seat) and Shelley Sekula-Gibbs (DeLay's seat) loses were strange on circumstances, due to replacement candidates not being the ballot (Sekula-Gibbs having to run as a write-in, Negron getting saddled with Foley's name). Those are two seats that should revert to the GOP in two years. However, it is just bizarre that voters in these long-time Republican district disposed of these Republicans, while Democratic districts have maintained these Congressmen with their flaws...

True, but that is likely a formality at this point...
