Bill Owens is the first Democrat to win NY-23 since the first term of Ulysses S. Grant. I looked it up.
But it was a great triumph for the Jefferson Davis Cell of the Glenn Beck Brigade of the conservative wing of the Red-White-and-Blue branch of the Republican Party. For a candidate they apparently were forced to call on the kid who always ate lunch by himself, and also lost the district for the first time since Reconstruction, but at least in doing so they stuck their finger in Newt Gingrich's eye and sent a message to any other ideologically impure, unorthodox infidels who pissed them off this week.
