He had an opportunity some time back to do the "Profile in Courage" thing. He built up a load of good will not just as a result of his conduct as a POW, but on the Hill with his Pork list (after he survived that banking scandal by going on the offensive) and his appeals for comity back in the day, before things got ugly between the parties, but now he's part of the whole partisan divide problem.

And he's just .... mean. And petty.

No one likes that shit!
