WASHINGTON -- It was a not-so-super Tuesday for Pennsylvania's Blue Dog
Democrats.
.
Reps. Tim Holden (D-Pa.) and Jason Altmire (D-Pa.), both members of the
dwindling conservative Democratic coalition, lost their primary races on
Tuesday. Before the defeat of the two incumbents, there were just 25 Blue
Dogs left in Congress, after the coalition's members were wiped out in the
2010 election.
.
Holden lost to progressive candidate Matt Cartwright, an attorney who
attacked the incumbent for voting against President Barack Obama's health
care reform. Holden is the second House member to lose to a newcomer in
the 2012 primaries. The other lawmaker was Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Ohio).
Both were also targeted by the anti-incumbent super PAC, the Campaign for
Primary Accountability.
.
Getting a progressive Democrat into Pennsylvania's newly redrawn 17th
Congressional District was a priority for progressive groups, including
MoveOn and the League of Conservation Voters. The latter ran the largest
independent expenditure campaign in the race, which included a $230,000 TV
ad buy on broadcast and cable networks in the Scranton media market. The
spot criticized Holden for opposing Obama's clean energy plan.
.
The League of Conservation Voters "targeted Representative Tim Holden for
defeat explicitly because he has opposed policies that will curb harmful
global warming pollution and build a clean energy economy," said Gene
Karpinski, the group president. "Tim Holden is the first candidate this
cycle to lose because he is out of the mainstream on global warming and
clean energy, but he won't be the last.
