33. I am represented by a conservative democrat

Pete Gallego

He is currently running a post on his facebook page to gauge his constituent opinion on the issue. Currently it is being overrun by Syrians telling him how to vote but before that the voters where nearly 10-1 in opposition to the war. He will still probably vote yes

Sadly living in west texas Gallego is about our only chance so I will stand behind him regardless. Anyone more liberal will either lose the primary or the general election. Either way it will be someone worse.

I HATE THE REPUGS OUT HERE!!! They are fucking nuts and I would rather support Gallego than have one of them representing me.

I am already stuck with the two worst senators in all of washington I want to keep my congressman
