See it here.
One of our Congressional toughest races last year was John Yarmuth's 51-48 victory over Mitch McConnell's protégé, Anne Northup. Northup had held this Louisville seat for ten years, beating challenger after challenger. Like McConnell and Tom DeLay, she always raised oodles of money from lobbyists and those Republican sweethearts, oil companies, tobacco companies, and drug companies, among others.
Since his election, Yarmuth has proven to be an excellent progressive representative. In fact, his Progressive Punch score is 94.3% progressive, ranking him #33 of 433 in Congress.
I think Yarmuth is beatable. So do a lot of Dems I've been speaking with. It will be an interesting year.
