Democrat math. This guy has been in Congress so long (24 years), that he believes the spin that he and other Congress thiefs tell their constituents. Just watch the video linked in post #1 and you'll see.
Unfortunately the local R candidates who run against these guys don’t hammer them with this. Conservatives in his district should start inundating the local media with letter talking about “accountability” of these liberals. (I’ve strated in my area-Youngstwon OH-I wrote my first letter the night osamaobama was elected). We have a lib D press, a lib D congress (one of our Senators is Sherrod Brown, and my local rep is Tim Ryan). “No More Excuses”
