Do any of this year's candidates have the chops to become the next Brian Fitzpatrick? A couple of ideas:
Tom Barrett (MI-07)
Jen Kiggans (VA-02)
Marc Molinaro (NY-19)
Barbara Kirkmeyer (CO-08)
Thomas Kean Jr. (NJ-07)
Zach Nunn (IA-03)
Out of these, only getting those vibes from Kean, and even he might be tossed out in a blue wave or in a primary. Of course, I don't know most of these candidates well, but still. Politics is quite polarised and I think all could fall in a blue wave. If any can survive it, though, probably Kean. He seems to be exactly the kind of moderate, pragmatic, my-type Republican NJ voters just love electing to Congress.
