“…making all Democrats look like unprincipled, sanctimonious jackasses who stand for nothing”

Aren’t they? Reid says he can’t introduce legislation to repeal Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell because nobody will sign on as a sponsor.
Don’t get fooled again.

just spoke with jerry nadler’s washington director, john doty, who told me that nadler is supporting it reluctantly. i followed up with a blast to pda members in cd 8 asking them to call and ask him to vote against it. maybe he is movable with pressure.

Meek is, unfortunately, the best the Dems can field to fill Martinez’s seat. Meek or Crist. Some choice.

I got some wishy-washy stuff from Kirkpatrick’s office today. They told me to check on the internet afterward to see how she was going to vote.

Kendrick Meek has been a real disappointment this year. Beginning with his telco loving bill - lowering of broadband standards before the stimulus bill (telco giveaway).

And I am very surprised to see Cohen and Shakowsky are still leaning.
