Gutless and not a team player escribes Lugar in a nutshell. I am almost as disgusted with him as I am with Bayh, who is another crummy contribution to the Senate from my state.
I made a mistake a few years ago when I called Kennedy's (the Swimmer) office and went on a rant about all the rotten democrats. When the lightweight Aide said something like "you don't like any Democrat do you"? I thought for a second and said "well having been a democrat most of my adult life, I know what good dems used to be and the only one I can stand is Evan Bayh". That was right after he stuck up for one aspect of the Pro-life movement like Partial Birth or something like that and the NOW gang beat the hell out of him verbally. After he recovered emotionally from their assault he has been a good little lefty ever since. I have seen my quote about Bayh come back to haunt me since that day many moons ago. I cannot stand him now.
