It took way too long. What happens to the Congressman’s House(?) seat? Can LA gov. appoint a fill-in or must there be a full-blown election?
Actually, his sentencing and incarceration couldn’t have come at a better time. It’s one vote Pelosi/Reid may not be able to count on for Onadacare.
His seat was filled by GOP Cao, who has already voted for PelosiCare. There is no question that anybody who fills that seat will vote for ObamaCare. It’s the 9th Ward of NOLA. He will almost certainly lose to a Dem in 2010, unless he’s running against somebody on death row - then it would be a squeaker...
