Dems Lose Weiner's Seat

Can't help but enjoy the Schadenfreude as Dems lose NY-09 Congressional seat to Republican Bob Turner. This was Anthony Weiner's seat, an overwhelmingly Democratic district. Antipathy towards Obama and his anti-Israel policy may have played a part. If so, this has implications for Florida in the 2012 race.

If this doesn't panic Democrats about Obama's re-election chances, I don't know what will.
