I have a Blue Dog Congressman who doesn't deserve my vote but I don't want to see the GOP take control of the House.
My Congressman is Mike McMahon who is the bluest of blue dogs. He voted against every version of healthcare reform, against financial reform and was one of the first Dems to call for an extention of Bush's tax cuts for the rich.
Unfortunately, no one ran against him in the primary so the Dems are stuck with him in November. I really don't want to vote for this guy so I'm not sure what I should do.

10. Michael McMahon votes with his party 92.2% of the time.

14. I saw that as well.
I think of this statistic when I think of the obstructionist GOPer that could take his place in congress.

16. I kind-of know what the response is going to be already though.
They'll say that the differences weren't about important issues, but I'd challenge them to make a list of what they think are unimportant issues.
Now, I really dislike doing this, because this is a campfire really worth watching.
The problem is, it's a really enormous campfire.
It consists mostly of the "James" primitive and the "LoZoccolo" primitive arguing with each other.
For miles and miles, as one scrolls down the screen, these two primitives wiggle-waggling their armpits at each other.
Really, it's a very funny campfire.....but a really enormous one.
