The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has announced the second wave of candidates they’ve selected for their “Red to Blue” program. The list goes as follows:

Kay Barnes (MO-06)
Anne Barth (WV-02)
Darcy Burner (WA-08)
Robert Daskas (NV-03)
Steve Driehaus (OH-01)
Jim Himes (CT-04)
Christine Jennings (FL-13)
Larry Kissell (NC-08)
Suzanne Kosmas (FL-24)
Eric Massa (NY-29)
Gary Peters (MI-09)
Mark Schauer (MI-07)
Dan Seals (IL-10)

Notice the two in bold? You probably have already heard about Steve Driehaus, but Ann Barth might be a new one for you. She’s running to unseat Shelley Moore Capito on the other side of the river. Keep an eye on this race. It’ll be an uphill battle, but it’s winnable.

You may remember that Ohio candidates John Boccieri and Mary Jo Kilroy were among those selected for the first wave.

DCCC Running Ad’s Against Chabot Over SCHIP

Apparently the fact that Chabot’s first SCHIP no vote come just hours before the announcement of a Bush fundraising stop for him didn’t strike the DCCC as being a coincidence. They’ve launched a round of advertisements against Chabot’s vote pointing it out.

And before anyone says it, I’d much rather have healthcare for children than a political talking point. But when life give you lemons…

For what it’s worth, I would like to thank the Republicans that have voted to support SCHIP.
