Is he a Senator or Rep? He couldn’t have voted for Boehner and also have a six year term.
I have no doubt he’s a disappointment. Most are. I am not sure there’s anything we can do about it other than not vote for them next time. We’re in a long game, and after the 2010 victories, the party power has overtaken control. We probably need to wipe out half of the new people, lose control and start again. Seems no one heeds warnings about not getting reelected when almost all get reelected.
Look, the great thing about Gardner winning was never Gardner...EVER. It was a vote to remove Harry Reid, it was a vote to throw that absurd war on woman campaign Udall tried back in his face, etc. I”m not defending Gardner, I’m just saying that there are votes to send certain messages, and there are votes from time to time for transcendent people. I never thought Gardner was the latter.
And those things he voted for? Disappointing for sure, but they were ALL going to pass, period. Sadly. Don’t blame a rookie for not being able to change the world in year one. IF you do, you will NEVER EVER EVER be satisfied.
Thanks for the information. Interesting.
