Rep. Martin Frost to take on Pete Sessions in TX-32
Here's the link: http://www.dfw.com/mld/dfw/news/politics/7714770.htm

Veteran Democratic U.S. Rep. Martin Frost will announce plans Friday to challenge Republican incumbent Rep. Pete Sessions in a bid to preserve his congressional career.

Frost's current district in the Dallas-Fort Worth area was dismantled by GOP map-drawers earlier this year who were looking to put more Republican Texans in Congress.

A Democratic strategist confirmed reports, on condition of anonymity, that Frost will file to run in Congressional District 32. Reports were first published Thursday in The Dallas Morning News.

Congressional District 32 was "obviously drawn to be Republican, but it is a district in which a well-funded Democrat could do very well because of the way it's drawn," said Russell Langley, executive director of the Dallas County Democratic Party.

1. WOOHOO!
I'm unfortunate enough to have Pete Sessions as my congressman. I'll have to get on the phone to Frost's office and see what I can do to help.
