Georgia Shocker:

Senate - Chambliss beats Cleland!
Governor - Perdue beats Barnes!
11th Congressional - Gingrey beats Kahn!

In the state house, 78 year old Democratic Representative Tom Murphy has been speaker of the house for most of his more than 40 years in office. Murphy is done, losing to Republican Bill Heath!

WOW.

Tom Murphy going down has to be one of the biggest upsets in the country. That would be the equivalent of South Dakota voting Daschle out, or MA voting Tip O'Neill out. That guy has always steered warehouses full of pork to little 'ol Bremen, GA. What the heck happened, was he found in bed with a dead girl or a live boy?

Ron Kirk just conceded.

Don't know how he'll survive now without the kickbacks.
