SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- U.S. Rep. Chris Cannon survived the toughest challenge of his political career Tuesday against a political newcomer who rallied support among party activists by portraying Cannon as soft on illegal immigration.

With 476 of 623 precints reporting, Cannon defeated John Jacob in the Republican primary 56 percent to 44 percent, or 27,115 votes to 20,934 votes.

I don't have any spin or deep thoughts on this. Jacob said some dumb things and that might have cost him, I don't see this as a victory for the president's plan.

Whay say you?
