More of this, please. The number of vulnerable Democrat incumbents up for re-election this year is growing. Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) faces spending financial resources on seven additional campaigns. The number of vulnerable Democrats was already over two dozen. You love to see it, don’t you?
The seven names added to the list are Reps. Greg Stanton (Ariz.), Sanford Bishop (Ga.), Bill Foster (Ill.), Dan Kildee (Mich.), Josh Gottheimer (N.J.) Marcy Kaptur (Ohio), and Jennifer Wexton (Va.). One race caught a break, though. Thanks to re-districting shoring up her chances, Rep. Haley Stevens of Michigan was taken off the list.

And our GOP has been busy breaking up the Jim Cooper Nashville fiefdom here in Tennessee. I look forwards to MY VOTE counting again! Woot!

Let us hope and pray that the RNC vets some good candidates to replace these outgoing Democrats. They have not done a good job of vetting in the past.

I'm a very happy camper about Cooper and the 5th Dist. out of Nashville getting broken up.
A creek runs thru my homestead, with my mailbox in a Red district, and the house in Coopers Blue 5th.
Now after 35 years my vote for congressman will count.

Don’t count on RNC to vet candidates that will advocate for anything that challenges the status quo, limits government , understands antiTrust enforcement closes borders or adheres to the constitution.
Get that contract with America up and running before primaries.

The RNC doesn't "vet" any candidates...the official party is generally "neutral" when there is a primary, for example, where local Republicans do the "vetting" at the voting machine.
It's easy enough to challenge the political machine. Anyone who meets the age requirements can do it. Just get your filing papers together, write a check, and start walking the district to meet the voters, distribute push cards and place signage...Oh, and make calls, lots of calls, begging for endorsements, volunteers and, especially donations - for Congress a couple of hundred grand will serve to start. No staff? Well, someone has to do it.
The incumbents have a huge advantage. They get money from the various re-election committees and special interests. They have a cadre of supporters and volunteers. They get warm endorsements from the pols-in-favor-dujour. They get the prime speaking spots at events. (Look who's sitting at the dais of your local Lincoln-Reagan Dinner this year.) They get the media coverage, especially if they have some new bacon to deliver their constituents or some national issue upon which a comment is needed.
Have a go! It's pretty easy...

Let's keep our noses to the grindstone and keep moving forward with the legal voter count...WE must never take anything for granted....even nervous Nancy's retirement was premature...now...she's running again...let's examine why...she's a shoo/in in her district because California buys votes and she's got plenty of money...thanks to her illegal investments....she knows she's out of power in the house in 2022...but...she can tattle to the fake media what's happening behind closed GOP doors...and control the squad who are losing their appeal with voters...aoc's grandmother living in squaller while she flies around vacationing and wearing thousand dollar dresses...put voters over the edge...

Hear hear #1. It looks like I will be in the 6th district rather than the 5th, though I can't seem to find a detailed enough map to confirm that.
Whatever, I hope I will be out from under the yoke of the Cooper crime family, at least as far as congress goes.
Next, I hope we can boot 34% Cooper from the mayor's office.
Let's go Brandon!!

Each dimwit rep who ends up gone is an auto-vote taken away from the democrats with the possibility of being replaced by a repub which would mean two votes advantage in the House. Continue falling on your swords you useless lefties. You have earned your right to suicide.

Heard on the radio while driving that Jim Cooper (D-TN) will not try for reelection this term due to the stated redistricting. His daddy was governor of TN in 1942 and his brother John is the current liberal mayor of Nashville. Lots of conservatives are moving homes and businesses to this state lately. Thank the Lord for them. Unfortunately, you can't keep the liberals out, but they can be outnumbered!
