The hell McCain and Lindsey drama queen put her though I don't blame her but instead of you getting mad at them, you get mad at the President who just accepted her resignation. Sorry but I don't see this as capitulation.

And don't give me this shit about Scott Brown taking his seat. If we can't hold a Senate seat in deep blue Massa-fucking-chusettes, we don't deserve it. We ran a shitty candidate against Brown the first time and we deserved to lose it then. We hopefully have learned better by now.
