Congressman-elect Billy Long gets mention in Washington Post -- Our "smack-talking auctioneer" is the lede!

From today's Washington Post comes this story on the mid-term elections: Huge midterm turnover makes House more of an everyman's roost
Our newly elected congressman is mentioned in the first paragraph:

To see how Tuesday's midterm rout will change the face of Congress, look no farther than the Bible Belt of southwest Missouri. Voters there replaced Rep. Roy Blunt, a savvy insider, with Billy Long, a smack-talking auctioneer with no college degree but a pithy slogan: "Fed Up."

Vicki Hartzler gets a mention also:

And two of the GOP's new rising starts are proud prairie women.
Vicky Hartzler, who toppled longtime Rep. Ike Skelton (D-Mo.), is a former home economics teacher who raises corn, soybeans and cattle on a family farm. She published "Running God's Way," a step-by-step guide for Christian political candidates.
