Unfortunately, Heather Wilson (R-NM) and Mean Jean Schmidt (R-0H) will be back in Congress

Ugh. So close:

More than a week after Republican Rep. Heather Wilson claimed a razor-thin election victory, her Democratic challenger conceded Tuesday, saying a recount would cost too much and there was no guarantee it would reverse the result.

In Ohio's 2nd District, Rep. Jean Schmidt, a Republican, clinched re-election Tuesday when additional ballot counts gave her an insurmountable edge of about 3,300 votes over Democratic challenger Victoria Wulsin.
At least they'll be in the minority now. And, hopefully, we won't hear too much from either of them.
