A Scary Upset

A huge upset in the IL-14 special election to replace former Speaker Dennis Hastert. Republican Jim Oberweis, millionare Dairy Farmer, LOST to first time Democratc Candidate Bill Foster. This seat was supposed to stay Republican, and the NRCC spent a ton of money in the district to make sure it did. Despite the fact that Oberweis had a tough primary against state Senator Chris Lauzen, he was still expected to win (at least publicly). I know we are not supposed to look for signs in early random Congressional elections, BUT no one can spin this as a good thing. This is scary. If Republicans can't hold on to this seat, how bad is it going to be in November?
