Was he threatened?

Guess this turnaround doesn't surprise me. The party will do whatever it can, even resort to terroristic threats, to keep their members in line.
How much longer till the 2010 elections?

The aborted babies from states that don’t opt-out should be dumped on his grave.
The people of Nebraska should be embarrassed.

“Breaking News” only in that it’s the latest development.
But it’s hardly a surprise.

There’s not one ounce of morals in that entire party.
If someone runs or votes for a democrat, they’ve got serious moral issues.

I will be highly entertained to see how Benji spins this.
1. Says he did it for the betterment of all citizens
2. Comes bringing bribes and gifts to the citizens
3. Announces his retirement and just didn’t give a damn
4. Gives glib replies then goes back to his hobbit hole and rides things out
