Talk shit about your Repubican congressperson here? Who's going down this Fall and why?
I just posted a thread about Congressman Vito and his unzipped zipper and his open bottle. I'm thinking this Fall, he's toast because of this.

Who's your slimeball Rep(R-Asswipe) and why will she/he be gone this Fall?

1. Interesting question H2S!
I live in a very red district of a very red state (Mississippi) and my congressman is a (D). Gene Taylor, Coast Guard Veteran, wiry little ass kicker who has made small work of any and all (r) opponents. He's a "centrist" if there every was one but the state gop try to paint him as a flaming liberal. Next door in Louisiana, the good folks over in the first district just elected steve scalise to replace bobby jindal who replaced david vitter who replaced bob livingston. Guess what?? scalise has christian conservative family values...

2. Don Young,
Edited on Thu May-08-08 02:47 PM by Blue_In_AK
congressman for all Alaskans who voted for him, now under investigation by the Senate, the House AND the FBI, is absolutely and positively toast -- and I couldn't be happier. Not only will he be defeated, but he may even end up in prison. :party:

4. Chris Shays of CT
AFAIK he's the last of the pukes in this state not counting that mouthbreathing POS Liebermann. Nancy Johnson and Rob Simmons lost out last year to dems that seem to be pretty popular now I'm hoping that it's Shay's turn to spend more time with his family.

THEY MISS YOU CHRIS, COME HOME!!

5. Don Manzullo
He's a bush rubberstamp if ever there was one. He has a big fat zero from the League of Conservation Voters. He vetoed minimum wage and SCHIP. He has only sponsored about four pieces of legislation since he has been in office. He was first elected in 1992.

The trouble is, I don't know if he is going to lose. We have a good candidate running against him, but the guy seems to have lost steam lately. We have enough blue out here to offset the red, but I honestly don't know. I can only hope that this is such a strong year for Democrats that his opponent can make it over the finish line first.

6. What about our DINOs? I've got a DLCer who is not much better than a rethug.
She goes with the safe vote, whether it is supportive of Democratic principles or not. Nowhere to be seen on anything standing up against the bushistas and their agenda.

Very sad.

7. John Shadegg - Arizona.
A complete asswipe. He wasn't going to run again, but his esteemed colleagues talked him into it. I'd say he's "toast", but that's not a certainty in my very red district of a very red state.

8. At the risk of being politically incorrect
and insulting any one whom is developmentally disabled our own, Bill Sali, is a virtual retard. The man is STUPID! He is programed with RW talking points and just repeats them. What a douchebag. He's going DOWN!

10. Heartless Heather Wilson(R-COW) is running
for the seat Domenici (R-fossil) is vacating after he pled senility to escape prosecution in Attorneygate. I have every hope that she will be defeated and that we'll be rid of her as our district's Rep.

This is a twofer. Udall (D-good guy) is far ahead in all the polls so far.
