So he wasn't exagerating -- I guess it was "my hands are tied comments" he was making.

Yeah, well, I COULD accept that line of argument coming from him, but for the fact that he got out in front of the Terri Schiavo business and wanted to make sure she was good and dead.
He didn't have to do that. He could have shut up about it. Connecticut wasn't going to hold his electorally accountable if he just said the Schiavo thing was a tragedy. But he needed to step up there with the pro-death movement. It was beyond doing what he had to do to get elected. People cared, but it was not partisan, and nobody was setting his thin hair on fire over it.
He missed a very good opportunity to be quiet, and in so doing gave a glimpse that his pro-death stance is not an ACT. It's where he is.
I'll still probably end up voting for him, as a caucus vote, because I am an idiot.
