Why take on an institution such as Jack Murtha – whose name is on the local airport and on many buildings across town – in a region which is heavily Democratic?
WHY Chip? How about because he is one of the most corrupt "institutions" presently sitting in Washington, DC?

Just A Nobody, I am traveling and just checked this post, but I wanted to say this:
We Tennesseans booted Jim Sasser after he had had a long cushy job in D.C. It can be done.
I am in Alabama at a convention for outdoor communicators and a lot of folks here are talking about Murtha. I told them I had sent Dianna money, plan to send more when I return home. You'd be surprised at the support she has from across the country.
