		<description><![CDATA[Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) has won re-election to the United States Senate, the Associated Press reports. With over 72% of precincts reporting Chambliss leads Jim Martin 60.8% - 39.2%.
Thank God. Chambliss&#8217; victory gives Republicans enough seats to mount a filibuster and dashes Democratic hopes for a filibuster-proof majority.
