Reps. Defazio, Grijalva slavering over Ed Markey’s Ranking Membership.

    I’m not entirely certain why – Natural Resources is one of those committees where the basic goal of the Republicans is to inflict Maximum Fun on the Democrats; and when the GOP holds the House the Maximum Fun is very, very Maximum indeed – but I guess that there’s money in it? Rep. Edward J. Markey, D-Mass., has yet to win the Senate seat vacated | Read More »

    Meet Ruth McClung (R CAND, AZ-07).

    This interview actually took place last week, but got delayed due to personal considerations that aren’t really relevant to the AZ-07 race.

Grijalva” – and goodness knows that such a thing would be absolutely swell.  Raul Grijalva, of course, is the legislator so | Read More »

    Blue on Blue: Grijalva, Giffords Tangle over SB1070

    Giffords’ district – one with a significant Republican lean – is currently rated as vulnerable by respected analyst Charlie Cook. For a Democrat in a conservative state, representing a Republican-leaning seat, it is important to stake out moderate stances on controversial issues. That’s particularly true on a hot-button issue such as immigration, which is obviously very important to Arizona voters this year. That’s probably the | Read More »
