I put other: What about former Majority Leader and then-minority-leader Tom Daschle's defeat in 2004?

They are all beyond embarrassing and they are just a indication of how poorly the republican party has dishonored itself through their own poor choices and behavior. The US Congress portrayed its own decadence by giving a moments silence to Michael Jackson, a drug using pedophile who led a disgraceful life. Talented... definitely, but to be honored by our elected officials... disgraceful. How about a moments silence for the heroes who are defending our freedoms... Nuff said.
