Previously the Republicans identified their 10 most vulnerable members:
Arizona 1 Rick Renzi
Colorado 4 Marilyn Musgrave
Colorado 7 Bob Beauprez
Connecticut 2 Rob Simmons
Indiana 9 Mike Sodrel
Kentucky 3 Anne Northup
Nevada 3 Jon Porter
Pennsylvania 8 Mike Fitzpatrick
Pennsylvania 6 Jim Gerlach
Washington 8 Dave Reichert
Now, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee began airing radio ads in a dozen Congressional districts over the Memorial Day weekend.
Targeted Republicans include 8 members not on the Republican 10:
Rick Renzi of Arizona, Richard Pombo of California, Rob Simmons of Connecticut, John Hostettler and Mike Sodrel, both of Indiana, Edward Whitfield of Kentucky, Sam Graves of Missouri, Vito Fossella of New York, Charles Taylor of North Carolina, Bob Ney of Ohio, Timothy Murphy of Pennsylvania and Dave Reichert of Washington.

Seems like the Democrats really believe their Delay bashing will give them a chance to win control of the House. They only need to win 15 seats to get control and looks like they are dreaming of a reversal of 1994.
Frankly, they are nothing but dreams.
The ad campaign was directed at the vote to extend health benefits for reservists to match those for active duty. It is perhaps intended to go after those Republicans that were in districts where that issue was thought to resonate. So it may not match up with the most vulnerable list. Future ads may target other Reps on other votes.
