If you had a vote who would be your choice?

I’d like to see my Rep. in the fight…Peter Roskam (IL-6). He’s currently the House Deputy Whip and a TEA Party favorite.

Well .. Hensarling was personally picked by Boehner when the last Congress started .. so even though he’s been sort of in the background, I don’t really know if he’s a good choice or not.
