Texas Tuesdays Wrap-Up

Here's my wrap-up from Texas Tuesdays:

Thanks again to everyone for a successful Texas Tuesday! While I'm not sure how much we raised for Chet Edwards, we ought to be pleased that there's one more Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives tonight. Stephanie Herseth won a special election in South Dakota tonight and her victory makes Democrats two for two in special elections this year. Both of these special elections were won in districts that President Bush carried decisively in 2000 - something that our candidates that we promote on Texas Tuesday's must also do this November.

Finally, I'd like to thank all of the bloggers who participated in this week's Texas Tuesday:
