Georgetown prof trailing opponent in House race

Posted by: Will Sommer in News, Vox Populi, tags: , , ,

UPDATE: Disregard. A commenter points out that poll’s from the last race.

Judy Feder, the former dean of Georgetown’s public policy school, is running again for Virginia’s 10th Congressional seat. The time she ran she lost Frank Wolf (R-VA) by 13 percentage points, and she’s trailing him in this election, 47% to 42%. If you can’t beat a crazy like Frank Wolf in a miserable year for Republicans, it’s time to go back to academia.

Do we even really want her to beat Frank Wolf, though? Sure, he hassled Georgetown about Saudi money, but he also supports Western Sahara and one of the Hill Hotties works in his office.
