Agree with him or not, he's putting forward things his constituency supports, thus doing his job as a elected offical. So I think douche is a strong term, yes I'm aware of the whole "tough shit" thing, but agian his constituency is strongly in favour of what he's doing, thus I don't find it condemable.Cybele wrote:That guy's a douche.

Below 30% ratings can be assumed for the majority of Congressional representatives.TheButtonmen wrote:

That's Congress in general. Most reps pull decent numbers out of their own states. (They kinda have to if they're going to maintain that prodigious incumbency rate). Bunning was polling terribly in comparison to the top 4 Democratic contenders, so he dropped out. I'm actually curious to see where Buttonmen got his info, because I can't find a poll on Bunning <1 year old.shaft.ed wrote:

You guys really need something like the Rick Mercer show, nothing like watching your highest elected officals going skinny dipping, bathtub sledding or teaching you to roll a joint or boost a car.
