Texas Tuesdays V. 3.0
By Byron LaMasters
This week the target is Nick Lampson. Check out our new website Texas Tuesdays.com for the post by Greg Wythe.
Anyway, you can learn more about Nick Lampson here and you can donate here (add $.36 for Texas Tuesdays!).
Nick Lampson has the notable distinction as the only Democrat in the past decade to have defeated a Texas Republican incumbent Congressman (of course that will change this year when Martin Frost and Charlie Stenholm are reelected). Lampson defeated Steve Stockman in 1996 - perhaps one of the nuttiest people to get elected to Congress in this state - and that's not a small feat. Lampson faces a tough reelection in a new district against Judge Ted Poe, but Lampson still has his Jefferson County (Beaumont) base, so he's got a fighting chance.
