Another Military Dem Emerges

House and Senate Democrats have been doing a fairly good job at recruiting potentially top-tier challengers -- particularly military veterans -- for GOP incumbents for next year's elections. And as Hotline on Call's Josh Kraushaar, it looks the the Dems might be lining up yet another veteran to challenge a defeatable Republican.

Keep an eye out for attorney Peter Duffy as the Dems likely nominee against Rep. Jeb Bradley (R-NH 01) now that Manchester Bob Baines is likely out as a candidate. An anti-war lawyer with military credentials -- he was called up to the Army National Guard in '04 -- Duffy said his campaign is "full speed ahead" after Baines suffered a shocking defeat in the Manchester mayor's race. Bradley has won by significant margins in his two previous election bids but has been aided by weak opposition. His district only went for Bush by three points in '04, and he recently was one of very few GOPers who returned money from DeLay's PAC.
