Lining up only to lose in 2008
Erick Erickson has names of possible challengers to Lynn Westmoreland in 2008:
A tipster tells us there are several people being talked about as challengers to Lynn Westmoreland.Challenging Lynn Westmoreland, one of the few good guys up in Washington, is an exercise in futility. He is pretty much there as long as he wants to be.We’ve got Wayne Garner, the mayor of Carrollton.
Jim Butler, an attorney in Columbus.
Shyam Reddy, the former Secretary of State candidate and current attorney.
Last, but not least, is Mike McGraw, Westmoreland’s challenger in 2006.
Folks, say what you want, but Lynn’s seat is safe barring calamity in his personal life.

As far as funding goes, Jim Butler has more money than God. Not saying that he could win here, but he's no Mike McGraw.

Oh, and I should have said, he's a good guy too. He funds several full scholarships to UGA Law for students who want to practice public interest law.
