I got this email today.
You need to understand that Jayapal is a master politician. She has built a huge war chest. She will have no serious opposition from the GOP because of her Republican vote in her district is about as bigs as support for the Islamic Democratic Union party or the Kuomintang.
Who else is going to oppose her? I suppose Kshama Sawant might decide to move up form City Council?

The Congresswoman does not need to raise that much money for her race. She could run naked down Main Street or State St and be reelected, in fact doing a little streaking might be all she needs to do to hold onto her seat. Take that Republican’s you can not defeat a streaker in this heavily Democratic district. Talk about anti democratic.
The real crime is probably all the hours this particular Congresswoman has to put in fund raising because the party requires it. Not so she can get reelected but that it can be spent on other races. And being in a safe seat probably does no help her either as it’s going to be a boring election. Unless Kshama Sawant goes Republican or totally cool independent. That would be very democratic and democracy in action. And it would certainly upset the boat and upset some Democratic power brokers in the state, all good.
