I'm not sure how much of the New York Times I can quote, but the democrats have canceled nearly ALL of their town halls this summer.
--That tells me a LOT when they fear to meet their own constituents.

Oh wait: power over our lives.

Now that they have it why bother speaking to the peasants.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."
