This is the kind of Dem who is elected by a machine (he’s a union thug to the extreme) and never raises his head because he’s stupid and scrutiny would cause him to get un-elected.
His district is D+3, he’s easily beatable.
This is my parents district. The guy Hare replaced had suffered from a medical condition for years and couldn’t even talk, let alone do the job of a congressman. When he couldn’t pull of the charade any longer, Hare got the seat handed to him.
