'The World Turned Upside Down'

Tradition has it when Lord Cornwallis surrendered to Gen. George Washington at Yorktown in 1781, ending the Revolutionary War, a British band played "The World Turned Upside Down."

That may be just a legend, but it's appropriate to play the tune today as a Republican has defeated the heavily-favored Democrat for Ted Kennedy's former U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts.

The world has turned upside down for Barack Obama and the Democrats.
