My opinion is that this shows the weakness of an arm of libertarian opinion as represented by "dance to a different drummer" congressman. Likewise there are weaker members of the liberal eastern wing of the Republican Party. On the whole, I guess I am glad that this fellow caucuses with the Republicans, but I find his ability to critique his own fellow republicans more severely then the democrats to be tiring.

That is one of the most beautiful, poetic versions of calling someone a "putz" that I've ever read! ;-)
