That is your new old Senator from Georgia, Saxby Chambliss, who retained his seat in a runoff yesterday against the democrat, Jim Martin. Chambliss got 57% of the vote this time, with turnout down almost 50% from the real election day.
This ends the Democrats desire for an unblockable super majority of 60 seats in the Senate, which was probably never going to happen anyway. We're still waiting on the ballots to be recounted in Minnesota, where Norm Coleman has a 303 vote lead. The recount is scheduled to be certified December 16, but who knows if they'll lose count or something by then.
