Hello everyone. This is just an update on the Opposition Research Project that I proposed in Sunday's diary:
Dkos Action Plan: Finding Opposition Research on Republicans
http://www.dailykos.com/...
In that diary I proposed that Kossacks work together to find opposition research on incumbent Republicans for the 2006 elections and eventually the 2008 elections. In yesterday's diary, Dkos Action Plan: Opposition Research on Southwest Incumbents? I proposed that we should investigate 5 Republican incumbents from the Southwest including Bilbray-CA-50.

Here are a list of other incumbent Republicans in the Southwest that we might want to research as well:
1) Hayworth - AR-05
2) Wilson - NM 01
3) Pombo - CA 11
4) Campbell- CA-42
5) Hunter - CA-52
6) Musgrave - CO-04
7) Porter - NV-03
This list is comprised of incumbents that we have a decent chance of defeating in November along with recommendations from the community from the Sunday diary.
In yesterday's diary I asked the following question but didn't get too many responses so I'm going to ask it again:
Should we Kossacks target a few races or concentrate on all the races? I really would appreciate your input. I could start opposition research open threads where anyone could dump whatever oppo research that they've gathered on any candidate in that thread. It wouldn't be very organized, but it would be doable. Just let me know what you think of the idea ...
I addressed some other outstanding issues in the last diary, but I think the most important thing right now is just to get started investigating these incumbent candidates. Let's see what we can find. Happy hunting!!
