1、ve seen a lot of scenes like this one recently: protests, people speaking out against the government, angry with how things are going in Washington. Based on the results at the ballot box, that anger might be directed at both Democrats and Republicans.Theres also a question of what this all means fo
2、r incumbents, politicians who are currently in office and are running for re-election. Some analysts argue that how things are playing out during the primaries could offer a preview of what will happen in November. As for Tuesday, Candy Crowley wraps up the results and explains what they might mean.
3、 As you hear her talk about some of the winners and losers, keep in mind shes mostly talking about primary elections, so they havent won a seat in Congress yet. So far, theyve just won the chance to be on the ballot in Novembers general election.（BEGIN VIDEO）CANDY CROWLEY, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL CORRE
4、SPONDENT: In politics, they dont come much tougher than 80-year-old Arlen Specter. But this hurt.SEN. ARLEN SPECTER, （D） PENNSYLVANIA: Its been a great privilege to serve the people of Pennsylvania. And its been a great privilege to be in the United States Senate.CROWLEY: Specter was a Republican un
5、til a year ago. In a Democratic primary, it hung like an anvil around his neck. So did his 30 years in the Senate, set aside for a congressman with four years in the House.REP. JOE SESTAK, （D） PENNSYLVANIA SENATE NOMINEE: A win for the people over the establishment, over the status quo, even over Wa

Running for her third term, the Democratic senator from Arkansas won, but not by enough to avoid a runoff.SEN. BLANCHE LINCOLN, （D） ARKANSAS: Tonight we begin our countdown to victory, folks. There were no insid
7、ers in the Kentucky Republican race for senator, but there was Trey Grayson, endorsed by insiders. Grayson lost to Rand Paul, a Tea Party favorite.RAND PAUL, （R） KENTUCKY SENATE NOMINEE: Washington is horribly broken. I think we stand on a precipice. We are encountering a day of reckoning, and this
8、movement, this Tea Party movement, is a message to Washington that were unhappy and that we want things done differently. Still, for all the headlines of the night, perhaps the most telling story is about the congressional district of the late Congressman John Murtha, a district that is blue collar,
9、 mostly white, socially conservative. The kind of place Republicans thought they could take now and in the fall. Mark Critz versus Tim Burns was the only Democrat versus Republican race of the evening, a special election.MARK CRITZ, （D） PENNSYLVANIA REPRESENTATIVE-ELECT: You like the tie?s got donke
10、ys on it, you know? And we have a great victory tonight, dont we?s more than a Democratic win. Its a major league talking point for Democrats who argue that in the first real test of strength in the fall elections, Republicans failed. So, this fall could change a lot of things or maybe not so much.

Were going to have a new post up; we want to hear your thoughts. Heres what its about: an experiment thats taking place in Missouri. Its not like the ones
21、 youd do in science class. Its a social experiment, something that involves people and, in this case, a restaurant. Ann Rubin of affiliate KSDK serves up the details.ANN RUBIN, KSDK REPORTER: For the most part, the cafe still looks the same. The menu, well, thats the same too. But really, the St. Lo

23、AN OF PANERA BREAD: You take what you need. You give what you can. And the bet were making is on humanity. The bet were making is that enough people will come in who will give enough that this cafe can sustain. And so the prices here are really just suggestions. And when you pay, the money doesnt go
24、 in a cash register, it goes in a donation box. Some people contribute more than the cost of their meal, which helps to offset those who pay less. And those who have nothing can offer to wipe tables. Already, the community is responding.HUTCHESON: We get hugs. We get thank yous. We get handshakes. W
25、ere just overwhelmed with the response.SHAICH: The important thing about this is that it isnt charity in the pure sense of the word. Its really about mutual responsibility.

In this case, its one, but he better have nerves of steel. Look at it! This burned out bulb is on top of the St. Louis Gateway Arch! Thats 630 f

The mans been doing this for nearly 20 years and its important work, because the arch is so tall, it needs the light to warn off airplanes.Goodbye Which is actually a really bright idea.
