This one will be up to the voters in that district. Flame me if you must but what I’ve seen of Minnick in his first term, he has stood for small business and economic common sense. Ward may very well be the right candidate, I’m just saying that Minnick hasn’t been a lapdog.
I won’t flame you yet listen to what Ward has to say on why Minnick has voted the way he did. And what’s up with his vote against the Stupak amendment?
He's been fiscally conservative yes, but on most other issues he's been right in lock step with the other Democrats.
Wait till any gun votes come up. And contrary to what Pelosi or Reid have said in the past, a gun bill of some form will come up for a vote. All depends on when they run out of other stupid socialist ideas. Maybe not in 2010, but if they keep the House and Senate my bet is guns will be near top of the agenda in 2011. Guns are on the list, just depends on when they get far enough down the list to tackle them.
I'm not sure but I think Minnick is in the public can have hunting rifles and shotguns but nothing else camp of anti-gun people.
