Pro-Life Group Targets Minnick

Minnick is an interesting inclusion on the list, given that he’s held one of the most conservative voting records for a freshman Democrat — a necessity given that he’s representing a conservative Idaho district that John McCain handily carried. But he’s also taken campaign money from abortion rights groups and is one of the most vulnerable Democrats up for re-election, making him a natural target for the organization/ Politico .

Question: MountainGoat Report is somewhat surprised that Minnick landed on the Susan B. Anthony List, which targets pro-choicers for election defeat. Quoth MGR: “With Walt’s voting record you’d think that anything short of actually performing abortions would have kept him off this list.” How badly will Minnick be hurt by having his name on the list?
