Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee: Republican Seats a "Target-Rich Environment," the "Best Defense is a Strong Offense."

The Best Defense is a Strong Offense

Our new chairman, Steve Israel, has built a powerful candidate recruitment team and is already hard at work identifying strong candidates for the 2012 campaign. With just 25 seats standing between Democrats and our House Majority, we’re pulling out all the stops to get the job done.

Our early analysis of the 2012 map indicates a target rich environment. There are 61 seats that President Obama won in 2008 which now have a Republican Congressman. And, of those, 14 seats were won by Senator Kerry in 2004 – that’s more than half of what we need to pick-up to take the Majority.
