Democratic congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz is the co-chair of Red to Blue, a Democratic congressional group working to expand the number of Democrats in the House of Representatives. Among the targets for the initiative are South Florida Republican Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Mario Diaz-Balart.

Schultz, however, says she will not do anything to oppose them because if they were re-elected afterwards, that would be very awkward (this sentiment didn’t stop her from pushing to replace another Florida Republican in the 2006 election).

Why? She’s a Democrat, they’re Republicans, they can’t be that shocked if Schultz favors electing Democrats. If they are, they’re in the wrong business … and if Schultz can’t bring herself to oppose their re-election, she should probably drop out of Red to Blue or be removed.
