Political Cortex: Brain Food for the Body Politic

These Republicans are among the ten weakest Republican incumbents and also score below 25 on the National Journal's "liberal score:"

Ranked from most conservative (least liberal) up:

CO-4: Musgrave, Marilyn: more liberal than 9.2% of the House

IN-9: Sodrel, Mike: more liberal than 11.7% of the House

AZ-1 Renzi, Rick: more liberal than 17.8% of the House

These three should be the TOP OF OUR LIST to target right now because they are among the most conservative 25% of the House and they are VULNERABLE. Please go to the ten weakest Republican Act Blue site and donate to defeat these three weak and miserable Republicans.

Targeting the most heartless Republicans: Though not among the weakest incumbents, these Republicans are among the 11 who voted against aid to the Katrina victims, though they willing to give Halliburton no-bid contracts without oversight, and they also score below 25 on the National Journal's "liberal score:"

IA-5: King, Steve: more liberal than 4.2% of the House

GA-8: Westmoreland, Lynn: more liberal than 5.8% of the House

NC-5: Foxx, Virginia: more liberal than 8.7% of the House

TX-6: Barton, Joe: more liberal than 13.8% of the House

NJ-5: Garrett, Scott: more liberal than 24% of the House

Sometimes a callous act like being one of only 11 Reps who voted against aid to Katrina victims can MAKE an incumbent vulnerable. So let's target these out of principle because they are among the worst of the worst. Please go to the Katrina 11 Act Blue site and donate to defeat these five heartless Republicans.

Together these two lists show eight of the Republicans we need to most target. Please join me in donating (or volunteering time if you live in these districts) to defeat these 8 Republicans.
