Are Democrats exiting the sinking ship?

“Comes the news that Democratic Congressman Dennis Moore of the 3rd district of Kansas is not running for reelection. Interesting. Congressman Moore was reelected by a 56%-40% margin in 2008, and Barack Obama carried his district 51%-48%, while losing the other three congressional districts in Kansas.

There could be many plausible reasons for Moore to retire from Congress. He turns 65 in 2010 and at the end of his term will have served 12 years in Congress. He served 12 years as Johnson County District Attorney in 1976-88, and so he’s devoted more than half his working lifetime to public service. Serving in Congress means having to go back and forth between your district and Washington all the time (and a quick look at a travel website shows only two flights per day between Reagan National and Kansas City International), constantly being reachable by your constituents, etc., etc.

All that said, this still seems an ominous sign for congressional Democrats”.

Yes the ship is sinking. Hopefully it will take down all the rats in government with it. I still don’t love Republicans, they squandered their morals and their leadership. After sitting in a room full of Repub Blue Bloods, I know that they are not my people. Working class people are my people. Not liberals, not extreem right or left wingers, average Americans. I believe that America is best served by those who have really lived. Not those who are politicial leaches.

Life is good!
