I did too, until I listened to that disgraceful interview on Tony Snow's show last week.
Turn out he's just "Swimmer Light".
I think too many Democrat Senators and Representatives are run by their staff, and not the other way around. Democrats try to find someone who can win, as their only criteria, and then let their staffs form their opinions and positions. These guys just keep saying things that make no sense or are opposite from what they were saying before. They keep trying to be on both sides of each issue, and stand for nothing other than reelection.
