For Salzburg there are 8 MPs in the Austrian Parliament (3x ÖVP, 2x SPÖ, 1x Green, 1x FPÖ, 1x BZÖ)

And in the Bundesrat there are 4 of them (2x SPÖ, 2x ÖVP)

Actually, I have read most of their names for the first time a few minutes ago when I looked it up. So I have no clue if they are HPs or FFs.

Ah yes, and I'm on vacation in Walter Jones' district. He's okay for a Republican.

Peter Braid is a useless CPC hack who does nothing but spout the Party's talking points, occasionally appearing at ground breaking or ribbon cutting events.

Replace 'Peter Braid' with 'Royal Galipeau'. My MP is also a PurgaTory backbencher, who has done nothing since his election in 2006 but does appear at every local event to act like a friendly douche. Aside from that, he uses his twitter to spew off old 1940s reactionary ultramontaine rhetoric which was last used by Duplessis (le ciel est bleu, l'enfer est rouge).

Though I do suppose he speaks French, unlike neighboring MP "Pierre Lemieux" who speaks French like some Albertan.

...do the quotes indicate that Pierre Lemieux isn't actually his real name?

No, rather I put it in quotes because for a guy with a French name, he speaks awful French. He ought to change his name so that it's less embarrassing.

That might lose him the district, which is overwhelmingly Franco-Ontarian.

Jaime Herrera Beutler - HP
I think it's a bit harsh to call her a HP but honestly she just seems to be a brainless dud that lucked out by arriving in on the 2010 wave (thanks a lot for retiring at the absolute worst moment Baird). I doubt she will do anything consequential during her time in Congress, which unfortunately will last for as long as she likes.

On the bright side I won't be in her district come 2012!

Romeo Saganash.

FF, but he needs to understand he is not a director of the Cree Council anymore and start appearing in other events than Cree events.

I couldn't possibly know, I haven't exactly seen or heard anything about him outside the short window of his election campaign.

Forgive me for not wanting to reveal where I live in Illinois, but my Congressman is a twit (even though he is from the party I lean slightly more toward).  A couple years after I got here, a few colleagues actually suggested that I run for his seat and said they would help build support for me.  But I'd never win elected office, and even if I did, I'd probably suck at it.  But, yeah, my Congressman is definitely an HP.

Rob Woodall is about the sanest person that could potentially be representing my suburban R+16 congressional district. Sure, he's a GOP party-line conservative, but he's not a firebrand about it like, say, Broun or Westmoreland.

He voted in favor of the compromise debt ceiling (increase even though six of the other seven GA Republicans voted against it alongside the other 'all-or-nothing' Teabaggers.) During the current Georgia redistricting deliberations he's been arguing for his district to contain only Gwinnett County to maintain a community of interest even though he'd be electorally safer under GOP plans to push his district into the exurbs. He's also pretty serious about campaign finance reform.

All things considered, he's a decent Congressman, especially compared to the crazy person that came within a few thousand votes of beating him in the primary.
