Paul Ryan's Office Calls Cops On Jobless Protesters

Have any Democrats and Independen­ts announced a run against Paul Ryan in 2012?

Good question.  I hope so.

It's allegedly a swing district.  Ryan's been there since the 1998 election.  The DLC has a long history of blowing off races around the nation, not even trying to compete.  

In 2010, this was the best that the Democratic Party could run against Ryan?  This is who you put up against a Paul Ryan when you really have no interest in taking back the seat, when Paul Ryan is going to get you what you want (ending social programs, pro-corpor­atocracy) in that unique @$$ backwards way that Obama's 'most ardent defenders' fail to comprehend­.

In 2008, Democrats ran Marge Krupp who, as best as I can figure out, blew off candidate debates due to "family emergencie­s".  The stories are mixed; hosts say she never responded to their invitation­s.  

In the four previous elections, Democrats ran the same candidate, a physician, Jeffrey Thomas, who lost to Ryan by a 2 to 1 margin each race.  Thomas actually ran 7 times in all for that seat.  As near as I can tell, the most money he ever raised to run against Ryan was $20,000 in 2006 to Paul Ryan's $146,000.  

If the DNC was serious about the People's issues, the DNC would be funding these races, taking back control of both Houses of Congress and getting real reform.
