House Republicans Say Mississippi Loss May Signal More Setbacks
U.S. House Republicans said an election loss in Mississippi yesterday may portend widespread voter rejection in the November races, and some are advocating distancing themselves from President George W. Bush's policies.
At a closed-door weekly meeting of all House Republicans this morning, Representative Tom Davis of Virginia distributed a 20-page assessment of the party's prospects, telling reporters later that it warned that following the ``same-old, same-old is a 25-seat loss.''
Republicans are increasingly concerned about their election prospects after Democrat Travis Childers yesterday won a Mississippi House seat that Republicans had held for more than 13 years, the third time since March that a Democrat won a Republican-held seat in a special election.

House Republican Leader John Boehner said leaders will meet later today to discuss the impact of the Mississippi result. In response to a question, he said changes at the National Republican Congressional Committee, the party's candidate recruitment and fundraising arm, are under discussion.
RIP GOP
