"The Real World' infringes on the real world

Sean Duffy's chances of becoming a U.S. congressman are starting to get "real."

The flannel-wearing lumberjack on MTV's "Real World: Boston" won his Republican primary race, beating a farmer for Wisconsin's 7th Congressional District.

Duffy received a key endorsement from former Alaska Gov. and Tea Party darling Sarah Palin.

He'll face Democratic State Senator Julia Lassa for the right to succeed Rep. David Obey, a Democrat who has held the seat since 1969.

Duffy, who has six kids with his wife, fellow "Real World" alum Rachel Campos from the San Francisco season, left his post as a county district attorney to seek Obey's seat.

In New York, reality wasn't quite as kind to Kevin Powell, a member of the very first "Real World" which was set in the Big Apple.

Powell was trounced in his bid to defeat Rep. Edolphus Towns (D-Brooklyn), winning just 33% of the vote.

1. I just can't get past his utterly perfect eyebrows. Damn, I get mine

trimmed once a week and I could never hope to have such as those.

On another note, I do hope some intrepid DUer has tapes of The Real World!
