Dan Borum is David’s son. My congressman, GOP Rep Lucas, defended Dan as a great colleague at a town hall meeting. I pointed out that Dan had voted for Pelosi. However, he did also vote against Cap and Tax and stated he was opposing the health care bill because you don’t raise taxes in a recession. Other town-hallers have asked him to change parties, I read, but he declines.
I heard a rumor up at the Headquarters he may be seriously considering switching because for the first time the OK GOP is looking at some candidates to run in that District and heard the Dems are looking for a challenger as he is not liberal enough which could drive him to the GOP. He has been protected by our delegation IMHO. He did vote for Pelosi but usually votes with the GOP most of the time and he refused to endorse Obama.
