Description | RENO -- An elementary teacher who ran for Congress as a class project with just a $7,000 bankroll welcomed an unlikely guest to her school Wednesday -- the Republican congressman who trounced her.
"I think it's something we all ought to do, try to bring some civility back to campaigning," Rep. Jim Gibbons said in accepting the unusual invitation from his political foe.
Gibbons shook hands and embraced Democrat Tierney Cahill to the cheers of more than 400 students at Winnemucca Elementary.
