same station pointed out that the indie candidate got 4%, so Bilbray would have been up around 54%...pretty convincing. So when the Libs tomorrow start their baloney about this really being a win because it was competitive, we can tell them to pound sand. Republicans better be glad there wasn't a Gilchrist in the race.
They'd be crying in their beers tonight if there were.

Campbell, who beat Gilchrist, has been solidly against illegal aliens and amnesty.

and what would have been the point of that? Bilbray is on the right side of the "iilegal" situation. Gilchrist would have been a spoiler, which considering the 4% the indie candidate received, could very well have caused Bilbray's defeat.
I give no thanks to the MM for supporting the indie candidate. That's irresponsible...
