deleted for idiocy

Edited on Fri Jan-22-10 03:18 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter

I am and idiot. I had been conflating Dorgan and Conrad because I couldn't process the weird fact that we had two Dems from North Dakota.

Sorry for my wholly invalid post.

2. It might threaten their future high paid lobbying prospects in the future

It's the only reason I can for the reticence of more of them to do the kind of things you suggest. I mean, look at Harry Reid. His reelection chance are moribund so he could do whatever the hell he wants as SML. But not if he wants a nice position in the private sector afterwards.

5. I am an idiot! You are right.

I totally spaced on the fact we have two Dems from ND.

When Conrad made his stateent about HCR I went, "Makes sense... he's retiring."

Silly me.

4. I am VERY disappointed in my Senator. Dodd deserves to not have this job anymore.

Give me Blumenthal. At least he has been fighting for us against big corps for years.
Dodd may think he has another job here in CT...Hartford IS the insurance capitol of the US.
