The DINO is gone. Now we can have a real Democrat represent Maryland's 4th.

1. Nice!

2. That's great!

It's not my district, but I certainly would have gladly voted for Donna if it were. And it looks like she trounced him...so far it's 59%-37&

3. That's great news.

A nice side story.

4. Excellent news! I'm always amazed at how little attention races like this get on DU.....

88 threads slamming Obama and Clinton and one about Donna Edwards-a really HUGH story!

Thanks for the link!

6. Daily Kos is your place for those kind of stories

[Rowdyboy]

7. Absolutely! Kos has been backing Edwards for almost three years now

and it really is an enormous victory. Al Wynn had a pathetic voting record for such a liberal district. Now if we could get rid of that pig Lipinski in Illinois the house would smell even better. Sadly, Pera lost so that won't be the case this year.

You're right though, Dailykos is far more geared to house and senate races. While I don't post there, I read them religiously.

5. We donated to Donna.... both of her campaigns. Good for her.
