Fear is not an excuse. Republicans are not supposed to get scared in the face of mild controversy
Yea but they got it
The people who forced out Delay never thought he was a good majority leader in the first place.Flake and some of the others have felt like Delay was a big government Republican who only cares about politics as usual.
For every action, there is a reaction. Delay's leadership has been strong and tough, and has earned him many enemies, even with conservatives inside his own caucus.
Blunt will be an excellent majority leader, and has very close personal ties with GWB; much closer than Delay does.
Does anyone know the date of the State of the Union address? I cannot find it; usually it's the last Tuesday in January? Thanks
