This is not going to affect things in November. Hey, it could be that it won't even affect the race in Foley's district.
You said -- "This is not going to affect things in November. Hey, it could be that it won't even affect the race in Foley's district."
That's hard to believe, since people have to actually *choose* "Foley" to elect his successor. The question was asked "Who is going to choose 'Foley' even when electing his successor?"
That's a good question and will most likely make his successor lose, too.
And it's also going to have a huge impact on the segment of the Republican Party that the GOP is depending upon for a "turnout" for this election (in order to win as much as they can) -- and that's the family values and Christian Right group. If they get disgusted with Congress in general, they'll probably just "sit it up" and cause the GOP to lose both the Senate and the House. And they're getting *quite disgusted* right now.
