Here are today’s headlines from the Kansas congressional delegation:Rep. Nancy Boyda (D) !(Washington Post commentary) Dems Dominate List of Endangered House Members: This week we tackle the 10 House seats most likely to switch party control in November 2008. The majority of the districts listed below are currently held by Democrats — a function of the party’s 30-seat pickup in 2006 that included wins in a number of districts that have strong Republican underpinnings. Those Republican roots are a big incentive for talented GOP candidates to undertake a challenge. … Kansas’s 2nd District (D): Republicans won’t say it publicly, but there is clearly a sentiment within the party that wishes former Rep. Jim Ryun (R) would have melted quietly into political history following his 2006 defeat at the hands of Rep. Nancy Boyda (D). But Ryun, who is part of Kansas folklore for his sub-four-minute mile as a high schooler, is itching for a rematch. He won’t have the field to himself, however, as state Treasurer Lynn Jenkins is likely to run. A Ryun vs. Jenkins primary would highlight the ongoing rift between conservatives and moderates in the state — a fissure that helped fuel Democratic gains in Kansas over the past few elections. Boyda is relatively unproven, and Republicans believe her early votes in Congress can be used to paint her as too liberal for the Topeka-area district.(NYT) GOP House Campaign Unit Goes ‘Viral’ in Targeting Freshman Democrats: The National Republican Congressional Campaign (NRCC) announced Thursday the launch of a campaign and accompanying Web site targeting 11 freshmen in what party officials call an effort to expose their “real records” directly to their constituents. The first 11 members targeted are Jason Altmire of Pennsylvania’s 4th District, Nancy Boyda of Kansas’ 2nd, Christopher Carney of Pennsylvania’s 10th, Brad Ellsworth of Indiana’s 8th, Steve Kagen of Wisconsin’s 8th, Tim Mahoney of Florida’s 16th, Jerry McNerney of California’s 11th, Harry E. Mitchell of Arizona’s 5th, Carol Shea-Porter of New Hampshire’s 1st, Heath Shuler of North Carolina’s 11th, and Zack Space of Ohio’s 18th. All 11 of these targeted Democrats took over seats that had been held by Republicans, and President Bush carried all of these districts at the top of the Republican ticket in 2004. The campaign, labeled by the NRCC as “The Real Democrat Story,” will be targeted at these members’ constituents and their local media outlets in the days leading up to each congressional recess, when most lawmakers head home for extended stays in their districts.(Copley News Service) Bill could delay lifting of ban on Mexican truck travel: Legislation introduced in Congress yesterday could delay the Bush administration’s plan to lift a longstanding ban on Mexican truck travel throughout the United States. A pilot program to allow some Mexican truckers into the United States had been scheduled to begin next month. Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Alpine, an opponent of the plan, introduced one of the bills, which would allow police to gain access to the same kind of criminal background information on Mexican truckers as they can pull up on American drivers. Another bill introduced yesterday would require the Department of Transportation to seek public comment on the pilot program before it is launched and would limit the program to one year. Rep. Nancy Boyda, D-Kan., sponsored the bill, which has the support of House Transportation Committee Chairman James Oberstar, D-Minn.
