I suppose Mr. Arcuri of New York is the leading answer to that question. But really, given the make-up of their districts I'd think Mr. Barrow of Georgia and Mr. Lynch of Massacusetts could be more appealing targets. And of course Mr. Lipinski is damn fortunate Illinois has already held its primary for the 2010 elections.

Posted by: poff at March 24, 2010 06:51 PM | PERMALINKI'd call that more bizarre than interesting. What Democratic constituencies would be interested in voting for Oliverio? If Oliverio were running as a Republican it'd be one thing, since he basically is one. But otherwise, well, it's a peculiar challenge.
