It's not like he's a Senator. We own the House. Tom DeLay is God. It's the RINO Senators that need to be staked on an anthill first. To crib from this RINO sob, "there are more important elected officials that need pressing."
It's relevant to me because I live in the district and I've campaigned for the guy. I don't mind the vote against reform because I want the guy to survive. I just don't understand what he gains by speaking out. Why piss off your base?
