Tennessee GOP congressman loses primary

David Davis is a one-term congressman from northeastern Tennessee. A Republican, he has a strongly right-wing voting record. He's also considered next to useless.

But yesterday he lost the Republican primary for another term - making him the first incumbent U.S. House member from the Volunteer State to lose a primary since 1966.

Wow, that David Davis must have really been pathetic! For a district that's had a Republican congressperson since 1881, at least it's good that a GOP primary can be competitive enough to fire an incumbent. (Not like most other Republicans would be much better.)
