If Keating's comments were portrayed accurately here, he certainly shot himself in the foot. What a crybaby, poor loser and loose cannon.

Steve Largent is an upstanding, decent man, and a (rare) rising star in the GOP. Sadly, it appears the Keatings have more in common with the Clintons than I would have ever previously imagined.

I think most of us realized that he spoke in the heat of the moment. Cathy Keating was portrayed by the media as having the clear lead in the primaries and when that didn't prove accurate (surprise surprise), I think there was a lot of disappointment and I truly believe she was very upset and he was upset for her. The only people that didn't just blow this off were the people that had something to gain by exploiting it.

Cathy Keating is a good sort, and ended up taking the high road and pulling out of what could have been a very difficult run-off. I've met her, I liked her, but she just wasn't the one for this job. The one that I felt was the best person for the job came in third in the primaries.

Steve Largent may be a rising star in the GOP, but he is a China-loving, Elian-hating, do nothing on abortion pretty-boy who accomplished exactly ZERO while in Congress. I'll never vote for him again.
