Is this a good strategy to target a representative that doesn't seem too vulnerable within his district? Does the Tea Party believe it can unseat Frank or do they wish to hurt the Democratic Party as a whole by attacking a representative that may not be as popular outside of his home district?
Both. Scott Brown actually won in Frank's district, so while still unlikely it is plausible that a Republican could carry that district. And anytime you bring up his name and the mess he helped orchestrate in the housing market it hurts the Democratic name as a whole.
