For some GOP challengers, victory is just barely within reach.
In late July, my discussions with Republican strategists and conservatives who were closely watching the 2010 House races yielded a list of “The Underfunded 20”: GOP challengers who had favorable conditions such as a conservative-leaning district, or strong issues to run on, but who needed enough cash to ensure their chances of victory weren’t swept away by a deluge of negative ads.
Mid-September is a good time to revisit that list, salute a few candidates for improving their standing, remind folks of the ones who still need help, and spotlight another handful who could be on the verge of key victories.
Thanks for posting this.
I’m guessing that Christine O’Donnell is not on the list.
According to Geraghty, he lists David Harmer as being one of the underfunded:
David Harmer, California’s 11th district: There aren’t a lot of competitive House races in California; Charlie Cook calls this race the state’s one true toss-up, as the district is one of the few where Republican and Democratic voters are registered in roughly equal numbers. Other race-watchers are starting to put this one in the “toss up” category as well, and the American Action Forum poll put Harmer ahead of incumbent Jerry McNerney by a point.
Thank you ... I've sent the page to everyone I know

Noem is a real South Dakotan who actually lives in this state and runs a business here and is not some phony like Stephi.
Bill Gunn in the Mass. First Congressional District could use some cash and PR to defeat the socialist Olver and roust him from his career as non-representative.
