Which Representatives:
1. Pledged to vote against any war funding that does not have troop
withdrawal provisions
2. Voted against June 2009 war supplemental
3. Pledged to vote against any health care bill that does not have a
public option
More than I thought, but all that have done all three of these things
are from strongly Democratic districts... According to Fire Dog Lake

*Candidates are listed in reverse order of district PVI. PVI is a
measure of how heavily the district leans to a particular party. In
general, the higher the Republican PVI, the harder time the incumbent
will have in the next election if Democratic turnout is low. If
someone is in a heavily gerrymandered Democratic district they
probably don’t have much to fear from a Republican challenger. Note:
all candidates listed below were nominated by FDL activists who are
their constituents.
