ELECTIONS ARE COMING: ‘The Resistance’ Targets Conservative Democrat Dan Lipinski (Illinois District 3)By Rick Moran
https://pjmedia.com/trending/resistance-targets-conservative-democrat-dan-lipinski/
Rep. Dan Lipinski is one of the rarest species of Democrat in Congress. He is a pro-choice, anti-Obamacare, pro-Israel politician whose 3rd Illinois District may finally be prepared to retire him.
That district was represented for 22 years by his father, legendary Chicago Alderman Bill Lipinski. The elder Lipinski was a reliable vote for the Cook County machine — an organization that could shake the money tree in Washington because of the powerful politicians they sent there to do their bidding.
The power of the machine may have waned over the years, but the Lipinski dynasty has endured. The 3rd District, once a bastion of Chicago working-class Reagan Democrats, has changed over the years to where it is now a more liberal, more affluent, mostly suburban enclave. The demographic change — including a huge increase in Hispanic voters — may spell the doom of one of the last “conservative” Democrats in Congress.
Lipinski is out of touch with the far-left liberal establishment and is being attacked by radicals intent on kicking him out of Congress. Whoever wins the Democratic primary on March 20 is certain to be the winner in the general election, since the only GOP name on the ballot is going to be Art Jones, a proud neo-Nazi. Lipinski’s main primary challenger is Marie Newman, a liberal activist who claims kinship with NARAL, Planned Parenthood, and the Service Workers International Union (SEIU).
