Vulnerable GOP leaders in the House of Reps
Here's who I think are the most vulnerable Republican leaders in the House.

From California:
Dan Lungren
Jerry Lewis
Duncan Hunter

From Arizona:
John Shadegg

From Wisconsin:
Paul Ryan

From Michigan:
Thad McCotter

All of these people are important Republican power brokers in Congress. All or most of them are in districts than are only a little more than marginally Republican.

3. I couldn't agree more
Hopefully they will keep up their antics and all be gone come the next election.

7. Polls showed a majority of Californians favored the
Arni-Democratic compromise. But, the neanderthalls still hung together. In Red districts do they care if schools are closed down. Michigan's McCotter had an amazingly close race and the Democrats hardly tried. If only we'd tried a little harder.

6. They'll soon be out of the game entirely....
...if trends continue.
