and he will be re-elected. He deserves to be, even though I disagree with his choice for nominee.

My town is blue, but we are grouped together with very deep red areas. Let's put it this way, befopre he became Governor, my Congressman was Mike Pence.

10. Peter Welch would be re-elected if he endorsed Mickey Mouse

Honestly, I don't believe it makes any difference who a Congress critter endorses as to whether or not they'll be re-elected.

Welch hasn't endorsed anyone.

Had you asked two years ago, my answer would have been "I have a Republican Rep., but a Democrat will win the seat in 2016."

But Martha McSally has failed to show the lunacy promised by her campaign ... She voted in favor of raising the debt ceiling, and opposed the food stamp cutting Bill ... so people aren't horrified by her.

14. I live in Dupage County Illinois, the state that was gerrymandered by and for Dems.

Dupage has historically been blood red. But.a couple of Democrats have managed to break through. To increase the number of Democratic districts, the legislature pushed as many pub voters as possible into one district under the leadership of Peter Roskam. Roskam was a founder of the Illinois Policy Institute aka the Illinois branch of ALEC.

That's my district.

Worse yet, I moved here from Evanston, where Jan Schakowsky was my representative.

Karmic payback?
