Liz Cheney
Anthony Gonzalez
Jaime Herrera Beutler
John Katko
Adam Kinzinger
Peter  Meijer
Dan Newhouse
Tom Rice
Fred Upton
David Valadao

That should be the low hanging fruit in terms of republican primary targets.

Thanks for giving us a few extra House seats, I'm sure you'll love four years of our trifecta expanding and redefining the role of government rather than just two.

Cuellar from the Democrats is the only one I care about.

And perhaps Debbie Wasserman Schultz too or the entire Florida D delegation.

It's a shame that Biden only won Cuellar's district by 4 points. We don't know how redistricting will affect it, but the RGV trends are worrying so if Cuellar isn't in a safe district sadly he's the better option to retain the seat than some progressive challenger.

Fair. At the same time, an anti-union Democrat is no better than a Republican.

That's an exaggeration and is actively harmful. A vote with you half the time is better than a vote with you none of the time, and even if all they do is have a D next to  their name and allow Democratic leaders to decide what comes to the floor that is still better than a Republican. The Republican Party is so dangerous and extreme that it is silly to be picky about the alternative in a general election.

Of course, in a primary, as much as you can without helping Republicans, it is right to aim for someone that votes with you all the time.
