Primary the Terrible Democrats

We had a conversation yesterday about the terrible Democratic congressman Stephen Lynch, outraged that constituents would dare ask him to stand up to Donald Trump. Well, there are more than a few terrible Democrats like that in Congress who need a good primary. The Prospect has a list of ten, which includes Lynch. The piece reminds us that Lynch got into politics in party to oppose gay rights during St. Patrick’s Day parades, so he’s always been a peach. Some of the other ten terrible Dems include old favorites such as Seth Moulton, Ro Khanna, and Josh Gottheimer. Most of these are pretty blue districts, it’s not like the old days of calling for primaries for a Democrat somehow still holding onto a district in Arkansas. One thing about the gerrymandering of America is that you should be able to have a member of Congress who actually believes in your values. Republicans are however much better at this than Democrats.
