Beauprez has one of the hottest seats in the country outside of Miami and Houston. He's one of our 5 most vulnerable incumbents. There are many vulnerable Democrats, though, and a bunch of open seats, a few of which are competitive.

Rep. Scott McInnis, R-Grand Junction, who announced last year he will retire from Congress

A shame. Is he calling it a career or is he taking a break?

More HOUSE news:

Fresh from his November re-election as Brookhaven Town Supervisor, John Jay LaValle traveled to Washington, D.C., earlier this week, but instead of lobbying national leaders, he was the one being lobbied.

Still smarting from the defeat of the only incumbent Republican congressman in 2002, when Democrat Tim Bishop upended Felix Grucci, GOP officials in the nation's capital are looking for a top-tier candidate to take back the eastern Long Island seat.

LaValle, 36, said he went at the invitation of Rep. Tom Reynolds (R-Buffalo), who chairs the National Republican Congressional Committee, to get a feel for the town and job. "They are trying to persuade me to consider the seat. It was a very good meeting; I'd say it was very, very positive."

I believe LaValle will run and take back that seat.

Is Tancredo up for re-election this year?

With all the mention of him on FR, you'd think he would have millions in the bank by now.

Beauprez would have a lock on the CO-07, if the CO Supremes had just let the legislature do its job.
