Incumbents who found ways to spend money somehow:

Rangel spent almost $2M, hopefully in the form of sending money to other candidates. Hoyer, Joe Crowley, and John Dingell also passed the plate over to other candidates. We hope. None of them spent $39M though.

Republicans who did that same thing include Spencer Bachus ($1.6M spent), Bobby Jindal ($2.9M spent), and Richard Baker ($1.4M spent). Bachus was unopposed. Jindal won 89%. Baker faced a Libertarian.

Here's some targets too.

OH-16 is worth targeting. No matter what Regula does, career move-wise.

Perhaps going for the South Florida districts held by the Diaz-Balarts could work, no matter how daunting it will be.

Somebody needs to be elbowed at the DCCC if they're writing off MI-07 or PA-15.

Random Note to close out the diary: The only Senate candidates to outspend an incumbent Senator were Jim Pederson, Ned Lamont, Pete Ricketts, and Sheldon Whitehouse. Whitehouse was the only winner, and the only non self-financer too.

Ok, that's all.
