Subscribe to RSSNo, Barney Frank doesn’t want to be senator to up his congressional pension. He doesn’t have one.
Frank, by the way, is toning down his opposition to Chuck Hagel: “I was hoping the president wouldn’t nominate him. As much as I regret what Hagel said, and resent what he said, the question now is going to be Afghanistan and scaling back the military. In terms of the policy stuff, if he would be rejected [by the Senate], it would be a setback for those things."
The Boston Globe notes it’s going to be difficult to keep Super PAC cash out of the special to replace Kerry.
What’s the rush… Cory Booker and Frank Pallone are chomping at the bit for Frank Lautenberg to quit.
Charlie Cook says the holy grail of voters may be moving from independents to moderates: “As we come out of the year-end fiscal-cliff crisis, there are other fights over the next three months that look equally challenging, if not more so. And the public-opinion fight is more likely to be won by whichever party seems to offer the message of balance that appeals to these moderate voters, who are obviously neither liberal nor conservative ideologues, and who are more pragmatic than dogmatic.”

Sen. Frank...yeah
It's time voters stop taking what ever message they like, because all these politicians are doing is reading polls and telling you what they think you want to hear. Start looking at what they are actually doing. Nothing.
So you are against a government of, by, and for the people. Polls are important to govern the will of the people. Unless of course they are ignored and then it becomes a government in spite of the people. This has happened in Michigan with the lame duck legislature passing laws that harm the majority of the people. We in America need our government to stand up for the majority, not a small minority of people that stand to gain financially from some of the legislation passed.
Yep, sh!tcan the Dream Act mumbo jumbo. Oh and you may want to take a look at that Obamacare thing too while you're at it.
I guess some people will twist and spin what ever you post to fit their own diluted thoughts.
Oh so oh wise one Mo, I wasn't supposed to take Jontho's statements literally. He only meant it figuratively. Got it.
Oh and FYI, it's deluded not diluted. YW.
the pubs may read polls but they learn nothing.
exactly. Look at how they misread polls conducted during the 2012 election. They took America's willingness to consider electing Romney to verification we would actually do so.
Let's wait until the body is cold before we start auctioning off the estate. Good grief, already. Put it to rest for a few months. The next big election is nearly 2 years off. Maybe this time next year would be appropriate time for speculating and "auctioning off the dead guy's stuff".
