The environment wins
A friend of SBW passed this interesting electoral information along from something called Teh Daily Kos.
While looking for something else, I stumbled on last year’s “Dirty Dozen” list by the League of Conservation Voters. And check it out:
Sen. George Allen (R, VA) — lost to Jim Webb
Sen. Conrad Burns (R, MT) — lost to Jon Tester
Sen. Rick Santorum (R, PA) — lost to Bob Casey
Sen. Jim Talent (R, MO) — lost to Claire McCaskill
Rep. Dan Boren (D, OK-02) — still around
Rep. Henry Cuellar (D, TX-28) — ugh, fake “Democrat” still around
Rep. Katherine Harris (R, FL) — got crushed by Bill Nelson
Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R, AZ-05) — lost to Harry Mitchell
Rep. Richard Pombo (R, CA-11) — lost to Jerry McNerney
Rep. Deborah Pryce (R, OH-15) — won by a sliver, is quitting after this term
Rep. Charles Taylor (R, NC-11) — lost to Heath Schuler
Rep. Heather Wilson (R, NM-01) — survived by a sliver, one of only two R’s on this list to do so, and the only one left running again in 2008
Politicos take note.
