Sounds like he is afraid of taking some heat. They are scared folks. Here in Virginia Mark Warner is hiding and I’ve not heard a peep from Jim Webb. Creigh Deeds is also politically dead.

That is actually a good idea since I understand that a lot of people supporting the Health Care Plan at Lloyd Doggett's town hall meeting were from outside his Congressional District.

"About half were in his district and half weren't. The ones who weren't were mostly pro-public option..."

I’m betting that his ID rules won’t apply to the busloads of ACORN/SEIU stooges that he’ll sneak in through the back door to take up the front rows of seats....

If it wasn’t for double standards —

They wouldn’t have any standards at all....

So do you think he'll reject campaign contributions from outside his district?

Me neither.

Why would anyone in their right mind be against obtaining a photo ID in order to vote? Is he implying that some voters are too stupid to obtain an ID?

The arrogant democrats can't fathom the gigantic can of whup ass they opened on themselves. They are pouring gas on the fire every time they open their mouths and show their disdain for the average citizen. I don't know how anyone in their right mind cannot see that we have a bunch of arrogant buffoons running our country. These lowlifes are the biggest cause of all the problems we face today. We are paying the price for their stupidity and corruption.
