Here, he sounds skeptical and says he is undecided. He also notes the overwhelmingly negative feedback he has received. Since this is my area, I'm not surprised. I know otherwise apolitical people who have contacted him. I predict that he will vote no, because his district is marginal (winning, to my surprise, over old crusty Dan Lungren, whom I personally despise), and he will heed his constituents on this one rather than give the GOP something to attack him on.
