For all the talk of Democratic anger at party-switcher Parker Griffith, the newest Republican House member from Alabama, they can’t seem to find a big name to run against the guy: “Ron Sparks is out.

Griffith was told to bring his lunch and be ready for a fight if he came out of the Republican primary, but who can Democrats line up to beat Griffith or the eventual Republican nominee in a down year for Democrats?”
