Funny thing, not very many understand that when elected, you go to DC and they threaten you the very minute you get sworn in. Either you play the game, or you dont get shit. Its like the Amish shunning their own.

That's why I allow a little softness from freshmen. If the jello spine continues into a second term, they gotta go.

My congressman is a second time freshman because the party threw him overboard in 08 for opposing the party line on bank bailouts.

That works just fine when you have a conservative district. Do that in another district and you will find yourself with a socialist as your rep giving handouts to his pals. Much like Stupak did.
