Reply #17: Yes, I feel very lucky indeed!

Cynthia McKinney has been a very vocal critic of * and his administration since before he was even inaugurated. She very openly criticized the "election" in Florida in 2000 and the subsequent Supreme Court ruling handing * the victory. For revenge against her, * supporters sent a lot of money to McKinney's strongest Democratic rival, Denise Majette, to support her in the 2002 Democratic primaries. McKinney lost that primary, and her chance for reelection. But McKinney ran in another district last year and was rightfully returned to the House to do her work. She's one of the shining stars in Congress that gives me hope for our party. I am honored to be one of her constituents and with her, I feel that I am truly represented in Congress, unlike with my Repuke Senators Chambliss and Isakson.

I don't know much about Wamp, but you make it sound like he will only vote how the party leader tells him to vote without applying any logical thought or reasoning. Unfortunately, I think there are too many of those types on the red side of the fence in Congress. Hang in there, hopefully the DSM will help the tide turn in our favor.


On edit: I originally misspelled Isakson's name.
