"U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, became enraged, shouting on the Senate floor that one state shouldn't be singled out to lose money that Congress had approved.

He said he would resign if the Senate voted to kill his state's bridge funding."

And the downside is?

Probably the best vote I ever cast for a politician in my life was for Senator Coburn last November. I'm proud to call him my Senator.

BTW, folks, for you non-Okies who aren't aware of it, the "good old boy" wing of the Oklahoma Republican Party pulled out all the stops to try and keep Coburn from getting the GOP nomination last year--but he won the nomination in a walk. They didn't want him because they were aware that he's not a lockstep pork barrel politician, but is serious about cutting the size of our bloated government, even if it meant Oklahoma lost some pork projects. We need 99 more of him in the United States Senate.
