Before the events of the past few days the only rationale for primarying Lynch was knee-jerk EMILY's List litmus-testing and/or thinking his "style" was too old-fashioned or whatever, but now that he's joined this quixotic conservadem brinksmanship over the Speakership I'm much more willing to accept that his district could probably do better. He's still not nearly as odious as Flawless Beautiful Seth.

Voting against Obamacare wasn't enough?

Also, has anybody mentioned Josh Gottheimer yet? I know he represents a Republican PVI district, but the Democrats should not have officeholders who explicitly articulate well-heeled suburbanite cultural superiority complexes the way Gottheimer did with his "Anti-Moocher Bill" stunt. He's basically Congressman IceSpear.

Gottheimer is awesome! I loved this ad he ran about how Scott Garrett should be representing Racist AL Hicks, not New Jersey. The lovely residents of New Jersey agreed, even in a horrible year for Democrats like 2016! Smiley

After their decision to play saboteur before even taking office with their scheme to primary long-term incumbents,

This reeks of good-old-boys-drinking-whiskey-and-rye entitlement.

Can we get a pro-choice person in Stephen Lynch’s seat? Please?

And this reeks of the Kulturkampf litmus testing that's contributing to the corrosion of American public life, even though I've come around to agreeing that MA-08 can do better than Lynch for other reasons. (I'd say the same to a Republican pleading that Murkowski be replaced by some NRLC talking head, and fwiw I'm in complete agreement with the rest of your hit list.)

You know, IceSpear, I did sort of miss you while I wasn't posting.

Thanks! Smiley

When did you leave, btw? I left for about a year after the election and came back in late 2017 in time for the Virginia election.
