  2. I want more of our safe incumbents to pony up to the DCCC. I was pissed off to receive a fundraising e-mail from Leonard Boswell’s wife Dody today, including this passage:

    It is truly with urgency, that I need to ask you again to help out my husband.  The election is closing in and we need to raise enough money to buy some media for the last few weeks of the campaign.  We also have the reporting deadline in two weeks on September 30 and need to show the press that we have the funds to compete.

    Give me a break. Everybody knows IA-03 is safe for Boswell. He’s hardly done any campaigning since the primary.

    I want people like Boswell to put more money into the DCCC so they can get involved in more winnable pickups.

  3. I’d love to see just how much trouble, though.

    The Republicans tried to take three seats in Western Pennsylvania when they should have gotten 1-2. In order to create the 18th, the 4th, and now perhaps the 3rd, were sacrificed. The 18th should be vulnerable to D takeover too, if ever we get a decent candidate.  

  5. in Ohio 16 and at some point also Ohio 15.  Good to see the OH-1 ad buy.  Now just some in OH-2 and we’ll be golden.  They can certainly play up her antics a bit and get this to a toss-up.  OH-15 and OH-16 already lean our way.  That makes 4 pick-ups to really f over their map.  Ohio, the new Pennsylvania.  Hopefully Flordia the new Pennsylvania happens, too.  They deserve to have their map f’d too.

    New York’s rep ratio is going to get annhilated too, no karma in that but damn.  It’ll be hilarious in 2012 when it is 27/0 full Democratic delegation from New York state.  Hahahahahaha, that really is funny.  

    You know what I’m excited for, redistricting.  It’ll be my first redistricting experience was someone of political knowledge.  Oooooooooooooo.

    1. I’ve received letters from most of the 2006 candidates I donated to who won.  Many of them are facing little to no opposition but nevertheless plead with me to donate so they can win another hard fought election.
