Playbook: “With the Fourth of July breather come and gone, American politics is swinging back into campaign mode: No fewer than eight challengers are announcing bids for key swing Senate and House seats across the country today.”

“A number of them are prominent repeat contenders — also known as losers — who fell short in primary or general-election campaigns but are back for more. And several will set up difficult primary contests against high-profile names who have already jumped in.”
