Congratulations, Joe Sestak.
Good riddance, crazy Curt.
Democrat Joe Sestak defeated Republican Rep. Curt Weldon in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, picking up an important seat for Democrats in their bid to take control of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Projections by television network Fox and CBSNews.com projected that Sestak defeated Weldon, who faced questions involving his daughter's lobbying business and whether he used his influence to help her. Weldon denied the allegations, but was unable to beat back Sestak's strong challenge.
We can be so proud of this win. A terrific Democratic veteran unseated a man who deserves to go.
Way to go, Joe.
