Yesterday, this was a positive trait. Today, they are apparently RINOs 🤦♂️ Their constituents call their offices and voice an opinion. People that work for the representative start talking to them about possible primary opponents. Other politicians talk to them and deals are made as sadly most political situations require. No threats. You, a highly knowledgeable individual should know this. Honestly, I like ugly politics. You learn much about many of the representatives in a party. 2016 will live on in slowly changing the R party where the representatives will be forced to live up to the word representative and not lock step vote with the liberal university graduates hiding behind an R. Let it be nasty! The days of Mitt, the Bush family, Liz, and dare I say our own state rep, Drunk Dade, are coming to an end. It will get worse in the next few years, but it is changing. Things are still positive. Reps are showing their true intentions and primary challengers are ready. Let Jim Jordan have his fight. He's up for it. Your turn...find a typo...a grammar mistake and have a cute comeback. Reagan, 5GallonBucket and LumRaiderFan 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
