On the Road Again?
From The Hill:
NRCC expects surge in recruits
By Aaron Blake
September 27, 2007The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) is expecting a small wave of recruits in the coming weeks, including filling holes in several top targeted races.
The committee is expecting recruits to emerge soon against Reps. Michael Arcuri (D-N.Y.), John Barrow (D-Ga.), Baron Hill (D-Ind.), David Loebsack (D-Iowa) and Patrick Murphy (D-Pa.), who are all without major committee-recruited GOP challengers. All but Barrow are freshmen.
The NRCC is meeting with potential candidates against Murphy and Rep. Paul Hodes (D-N.H.), another freshman without a major opponent.
Meanwhile, Indiana Republicans have been anxiously awaiting word from former Rep. Mike Sodrel (R), who is rumored to be in for a fourth straight match-up with Hill.
The word I hear in southern Indiana from those probably “in the know”?
“Get your shirts ready.”
Kick the tires and light the fires.

You’ll note that Indiana’s 2nd District is not on that list. It looks like we’ll be doomed to another two years of a blue dog Democrat who votes liberal on some issues.
