Rep. Peter King (R-Long Island)
His seat seems pretty liberal and he's really right-wing, so shouldn't we start contesting he seat more heavily? It's seems like it could be a Democratic pick-up.

2. I wish, I don't much about
Long Island but you would think New Yorkers around New York City would have had it up to here with ritewingers!!

3. I live in his district
Edited on Thu Jun-16-05 05:28 PM by Bleachers7
And I can't say some of us aren't working on it. The district has a 70,000 republican voter advantage. I think the race would be close if it was open, but he's going to be tough to beat otherwise. He doesn't deserve to be a congressman. PM me if you live in the district and want to help out.

6. Isn't his heavy identification with Irish issues also a factor
in making him tough to beat?

8. That's right. He's one of the Republicans who helped rig the election.
I hope he gets what's coming to him.

7. God that guy is such a dickhead.
I would love to see him toppled.

He had an angry exchange with a DUer a couple years ago, if I recall correctly.
