Consider this a companion piece to Benawu's diaries on Congressional candidates: http://www.dailykos.com/...
I hope to post this series on candidates as they enter the race to take on Republican incumbents or in Republican open seats. The Republicans have a bit of an advantage in candidate recruitment at present as they have candidates in over 80 districts held by Democrats while the Democrats only have around 40-50.
So, hopefully this series will do a little bit to increase the exposure of Congrrssional Democratic Candidates.
Where I can't find newspaper stories, I'll post their websites if they have one or even just past links to previous dailykos diaries :)
