Rep. Mike Ross (D-Ark.), the lead negotiator for the Blue Dog Coalition, a bloc of about 50 Democratic conservatives in the House, declared Tuesday he would oppose the public option. He said an “overwhelming number” of his constituents had told him they opposed a government-run health insurance option, “and it is your feedback that has led me to oppose the public option as well.”

If he votes for the health-care bill PERIOD he is going to be facing his toughest reelection EVER!

We still haven't forgotten about those 'FREE' trips to 'study' global warming WE PAID FOR (& he took his wife).

Exactly. My Rep, Brian Baird has taken those vacations (Antarctica) on our dime also, he’s no Blue Dog, he’s a lib and we’d sure like to give him his walking papers.
