Former State Sen. Jack Jackson would be an ideal choice. He was running early on last cycle and was supposed to pose a threat to Renzi, but dropped out. We need recruit him this time around. I truly believe Renzi, with his hard-right and apparent ethical problems, is one of the most endangered Republican house incumbents. He can be beat. Remember, Simon barely had any national support and came relatively close.
