Title: DCCC Frontline list of vulnerable incumbents Post by: zorkpolitics on January 02, 2012, 02:29:36 PM DCCC updated their list of the weakest Democratic incumbents (excluding Dem v Dem primaries due to redistricting).
http://dccc.org/blog/entry/dccc_chairman_steve_israel_announces_new_frontline_members/ Interestingly, Heath Shuler, rated by Cook and Rothenberg as endangered is not on the list, further supporting the rumor he will retire. The 18 most endangered Democratic incumbents are: Ben Chandler (KY-06) Betty Sutton (OH-16) Bill Owens (NY-23) Dave Loebsack (IA-02) Gabby Giffords (AZ-08) Gerry Connolly (VA-11) Jerry McNerney (CA-11) Jim Matheson (UT-04) John Barrow (GA-12) John Garamendi (CA-03) Kathy Hochul (NY-26) Kurt Schrader (OR-05) Larry Kissell (NC-08) Leonard Boswell (IA-03) Lois Capps (CA-24) Mike McIntyre (NC-07) Tim Bishop (NY-01) Tim Walz (MN-01) Title: Re: DCCC Frontline list of vulnerable incumbents Post by: I spent the winter writing songs about getting better on January 02, 2012, 03:10:58 PM Walz should be fine. His seat will not change much and his only declared opponent is a nutter.

I thought the VA Republicans were trying to give Connelly in a safer district so that they'd have a solid 8-3 delegation. Title: Re: DCCC Frontline list of vulnerable incumbents Post by: minionofmidas on January 02, 2012, 05:40:48 PM This list has some strange entries on it.

Would it be inappropriate to explain to you why a person with severe brain damage might find it hard to win re-election to a leadership position?
