Well, if the Nation is about to turn left, RINO Shays has certainly positioned himself for the change. I used to think he was one of the dumbest members of Congress, though there is so much competition today, that may no longer be the case. In any event, both his IQ and his politics will fit well on the other side of the aisle.
I get tired of things like this "The Republican Congress has spent all of its time and energy catering to special interests." There are no interests other than special interests, and my interests are the most special to me.
Shays has run out of 'wigglin-room in CT... it's electorate has become even more liberal and he will get the boot come election time.
