There is so much wrong with this, it’s hard to even think of where to begin criticizing it.

On principle, I’m annoyed with both representatives. As a pragmatic matter, though, I’m inclined to be more forgiving of Cao than Castle.

Cao is the first Republican to hold Louisiana’s 2nd District seat since Hamilton Coleman in 1889. He’s also looking strong for re-election despite almost universal predictions (including my own) that he’d be a one-termer for sure. With a situation like that, a guy who votes with the GOP 82% of the time is probably about the best conservatives could realistically hope for.

Castle, though? Pfeh. O’Donnell is twice the candidate he is, and is a genuine conservative to boot. Pack your bags, dude.

House Democrats passed a bill providing $26.1 billion dollars to states for their Medicaid programs and education budgets, by a count of 247-161. All Democrats but 3 supported the bill, and all Republicans but 2 opposed it... Earlier, Democrats passed the rule on the bill with more Democratic defections, 229-173... The House completed all of their work in the one-day session, passing the state fiscal aid bill and a border security measure which requires further Senate action. The House also tabled a GOP motion to block the chamber from convening during a lame duck session, by a vote of 236-163. Only six Democrats joined the Republicans on that vote (Idaho's Mike Simpson (R) voted with the Dems).
