21. That's a Good Way of Putting It

We can also learn from the other election: South Carolina's 5th. That is a red district, too, and their election didn't have nearly the attention or money that Georgia's 6th did. Yet the rethug victory was just as narrow. What did Parnell do right and how can we learn from it?
