Edited on Mon Jun-09-08 05:06 PM by rateyes
him why he has yet to endorse a candidate, seeing as how he is supposed to be a Democrat, that the overwhelming majority of the Democrats in his district voted for Obama, and that he is supposed to lead.

Today, I get a letter from him (Rep. Jim Marshall, GA) thanking me for my suggestion, but that he remains uncommitted as a superdelegate because he sees good qualities in both candidates, and he hopes he doesn't have to choose between them. Then, he thanked me for WRITING to him. I didn't write to him. I called his office.

I wondered if he actually felt his spine leave his body when he wrote that letter.

If that coward loses by one vote, it will be mine. I wish he would just be honest and switch parties. He votes with Bush on every major issue. Even SCHIP. Piece of crap.

2. "....he hopes he doesn't have to choose between them."
Umm... isn't that the whole point? Is he never going to commit, even after Denver?

I'm so sorry you are stuck with this turd of a Congressperson. :(
