While I understand your concerns, I still say it’s time for Manzullo to go. Congress has a 9% approval rating? People hate Congress, except for their own Congressman. Fine. Nothing will ever change.

It’s time to vote them ALL out, even the ones we like, if we expect things to change. The way I figure it, if I like my Congressman, I’ll still vote against him if he runs for reelection, BEFORE I learn what he is really up to.

There are no honest politicians....none. Let them serve their term, so they can boost their egos, then dump them. It’s good for them, it’s better for us. :)

Kinzinger is also an incumbent, he just moved, so you wouldn't be voting them all out, just picking one incumbent over another. What's more, Kinzinger has picked up all the garbage in 2 years that Manzullo only has half picked up in 20. The problem with the whole vote them all out thing, is that the lefties don't share that point of view, and they use that (combined with the permanent bureaucratic class that don't get voted out) to tame any size of freshmen, specially ones in the minority.

The way to get what you want is term limits, so all play by the same rules. Unfortunately, at the Federal level, that means a Constitutional Amendment.
