Franklin said: “Even though he’s a lame duck because he’s not seeking re-election, I assume my Blue Dog Rep. Bud Cramer is one of the quislings. He can’t help himself.”

The trust is, politicians in lame duck circumstances are the most reliable, at least in terms of indicating what they REALLY think….they have nothing to lose, and don’t have to worry about who will vote of them, or not. Perhaps you should take a closer look at their reasons before you reflexively assume that they are in the wrong…….

Tomorrow’s just the House vote right? Can we still lobby Obama to stop this thing in the Senate? He’s got enough endorsers there, I think.

Even more exciting would be if Senator Clinton came to the rescue here–if she just started screaming about this as loud as she could to the media and threatened to make an issue of it at Denver.

Yes she can!
