What did you expect from a party that in '06 embraced K street?
Or the fact that party activists can't even figure whats wrong with our representatives taking bribes from big business. Look K Street's takeover of the Democratic Congress elicited all but a yawn of indifference from the blogosphere and activists.
And when you read the comments on Stollers blog, most just question whats the big deal with representatives taking bribes in such a overt manner. Then again this is the same party that voted back Rep. Jefferson of Louisiana who kept his fat stash of bribe money in his freezer.
K Street/Big business has nothing to worry about from the Democrats. The rank and file don't know right from wrong, legal from illegal or even care for that matter.
I wonder who Al Wynn is endorsing?
Done wondering.
Al Wynn is from my state,so i have paid him some attention. Weird guy. Usually pro-corporate, but he endorsed the Conyers HealthCare bill.
