So as Grimm isn't being sworn in, if Dems win the seat (as they've had a recent habit of doing in NY special elections), could it be said that the Republicans never "really" got to their historic 247 seat total?

I can only laugh at Democratic voter's complete impotence in specials.

Smolty is one of my favorite posters but he's wrong on this count. Don't forget that dems won MS-1, LA-6 and IL-14 in 07-08 off year.

No, i haven't forgot that. But it was in a perfect wave environment. Never to be repeated again.

Why not? I do wonder if all this "Democrats are bad at non-Presidential elections" concern is really just the out-party-does-well-effect continuing as it always has. In the next Republican administration we'll probably find that Democrats are suddenly good at off-year elections again.
