Is there a list of these 30 to 40 Republican Teabag Congressmen who shut down the U.S. Government?

So that we can work against them in the next election cycle?

Anyone have a resource? I want to get the word out to my circle of friends now.

I will knock on doors, donate my time, phone bank, et cetera...

2. Rachel Maddow scrolled through their pictures on her show the other night

But she didn't have names with the pictures. They were all white and all but 2 were male. She did profile a couple but I didn't see a names list.

Good luck trying to get them out. All are from redrawn districts that have over 70% white and republican constituents. That's why they can do what they do. Their constituents love what they're doing.
