Star: Brown win has GOP ready to work harder on unseating Skelton

The upset victory by Scott Brown in the U. S. Senate race in Massachusetts has Republicans growing more and more confident that they can unseat veteran Fourth District Congressman Ike Skelton, according to an article in today's Kansas City Star:

“I think Scott Brown’s victory shows that if a Republican can win in the bluest of blue states, then Ike Skelton is in for a world of hurt,” said Tom Erickson, a spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee.

The loss made Democrats painfully aware that their four-year honeymoon with the voters may be over.
