Meanwhile, back at the ranch: House Edition California, Congress, Wyoming

President Bush’s dismal poll numbers, the flagging economy, beset with rising energy prices in the midst of a housing crisis, and the huge number of Americans who say the country is on the wrong track, all mean that Democrats could expand on their 2006 gains in Congress. Here are some House districts in the West where the outcome is not a forgone conclusion:

AK-AL
AZ-1
AZ-3
AZ-5
AZ-8
CA-4
CA-11
CA-50
CO-4
ID-1
NM-1
NM2
NV-2
NV-3
OR-5
WA-8
WY-AL

My favorite contests are CA-4 and WY-AL where Charlie Brown and Gary Trauner, respectively, hope to swing their districts into the Democratic column. Such a swing would be a fitting end to the Bush presidency, whose actions were eerily predicted by a satirical piece seven years ago.
