Something Overdue but Welcome from the DCCC

The blogosphere's been pushing for some time to have a complete list of Congressional districts and announced candidates.

Well, the DCCC has finally rolled one out.

And yes, John Courage is listed in TX-21. But either Rahm Emanuel knows something that hasn't yet been announced, or there's a little typo because it's listed as an open seat.

I know Lamar Smith is not the most colorful of congresscritters-he might as well be covered in Delay stamped cellophane-but I haven't seen any announcement that he's retiring from Congress.

Though the idea does tickle me. Perhaps we can generate a little more prickly heat for Bacardi Lamar.

Any ideas?
