Heather Wilson Just Won Reelection

This isn't a popular race, but it's been pretty close. Heather Wilson is the Republican incumbent in New Mexico's First Congressional District. If I were her, I would turn this into an ad and play it 100 times a day between now and November 7th.

You make a good point, but, it seems that of 27 bills sponsored by Heather Wilson , only one was passed, the remainder of which are sitting on someones desk in Washington waiting for someone to bring it to a vote.

She voted with Bush 89% of the time. This isn't a good year for a Republican to be associated with 89% of Bushs failed policies.

She voted along party lines 90% of the time.

That tells me she isn't a lawmaker who can get her bills brought up for a vote .

Best of all her opponent has this ammo to throw at her.

If I was a voter in their district, I'd be looking for a 3rd party candidate.
