I'd ask for your definition of "elite," but who am I kidding. (The non-elites obv include the legless female Iraq vet who IS STILL PROWAR, but I guess her non-elite potential constituents found the Republican winner not quite that fucking stupid, which is plausible.)

Tammy Duckworth is more 'elite' than 'non-elite' because she's Thai (and has an Intl Affairs masters from GW and was working toward a doctorate), but so were her intended constituents because they are Chicago suburbanites. i'm talking about many of the Dem candidates in less metropolitan areas.

Ohio Republican Rep. Jean Schmidt, who called Democratic Rep. John Murtha (news, bio, voting record) a coward, is ahead of her challenger by 2,862 votes. Rep. Barbara Cubin (news, bio, voting record), who threatened to slap her wheelchair-bound Libertarian opponent after a debate, is ahead by fewer than a thousand votes in her Wyoming contest.

This was the guy that Michael Medved was railing against in his rant I linked on the schadenfreude thread. For causing that alone, Stan Jones, I salute you -- blue skin and all.

He was hurtling down an asphalt road in upstate New York on the 47th trip of his ferocious campaign to win back the House. A lecture, even from political consultant James Carville, was the last thing he needed.
In just 12 days, his campaign would end in a historic victory--a triumph that almost no one believed possible when he took the job nearly two years ago--or in colossal failure.
