(43,850 posts)And of course she's just the stage they're playing out the usual garbage on.
BumRushDaShow
(172,222 posts)is that they dismiss the "content" of their own members' vileness in order to project a false "bravado" with the appearance of being "unified against the (fictional) 'enemy'".
At this point, they have gone so far over the cliff in fear of the monster they created, that this woman could literally "shoot someone" in front of them and they would continue to defend her unflinchingly.

(172,222 posts)probably because they are in swing districts and would be tied right to her (Democrats have already put out ads tying the entire party to QAnon).

(77,271 posts)Barely. The line was drawn to take most of the Rockford area out.
Illinois redrew districts a few times in the last 30 years because of pockets of very high population growth.
Kinzinger actually lives in a suburb of Joliet, which is 80-90 miles from Rockford.
IL 16 is a sprawling district that starts at the Wisconsin state line, runs essentially down the center then goes south and east. The east edge is on the IL/IN state line, and is far south as Bloomington. (But, east of that.)
It's around 180 miles north to south. 12 Counties. Then a slice of far western county where we live.
I live about 12 miles from Kinzinger.

BumRushDaShow
(172,222 posts)With 2(D) and 1(R) listed as not voting.
ETA - 1 last (D) voted (probably Pelosi or Hoyer) so it was 1 D (Marcia Fudge, who was nominated to be HUD Secretary) and 1 R not voting.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
