It's too bad we couldn't get Frank Mascara to run against Pennsylvania's abomination in the 'Rat primary and damage him for the general. This young lady is going to need beaucoup $$ to challenge Murtha.

Given Murtha's recenty heightened profile, wouldn't the fact that a credible opponent was challenging him in and of itself draw donations?

I agree with you both. She's gonna need lotsa money, but she's also gonna draw a lot of money (including from us out-of-staters who support our military).

Murtha, 73, of Johnstown, is a senior member of Congress, dean of the state's congressional delegation and the top-ranking Democrat on the House Appropriations defense subcommittee.

I believe it is critically important that the GOP take on these bigshots. If there was a viable GOP in Massachusetts, they should be getting their very best candidate to run for senate whenever one of the 'rat K-scumbags is up for re-election. The purpose would be to insure that a good solid message got out, with publicity for Republicans as solid options not throw-away cranks; but also the fact is, sometimes the people choose an unexpected giant-killer.

Sorry, I don't have a clue. Being from SC, I'll have to defer to somebody more familiar with PA politics.

Hey stop putting those pics of her,I am a married man...

It's okay...she's a married woman!

I'd love to see her run.! Murtha needs to be put into retirement.

It's good that she was elected at-large, as it gives her a larger electoral base from which she could launch a campaign should she run.

At large is correct.She was first elected in 1996.She was the youngest nominee ever elected, and the first woman.

Terms run 4 years.She is now in the second year of her third term.

She should use the photo of Murtha posing with the Code Pinkos - those whackos protesting outside of Walter Reed Medical Center.

She doesn't need to do that.

Besides, she's better than that.She can run an upbeat, positive campaign and win.

They'll be plenty of other groups to portray Murtha as the cheap hack that he is.
