re: #98 HappyWarrior

Frank Wolf was in the yays- doesn’t surprise me. Too bad about Rigell. With an overwhelming majority of R’s in our state delegation, it would be nice to have at least one decent R.

Rigell was always walking a thin line with me. He showed some sanity the last go around with the shutdown, but that seemed less to be about principles and more about just not wanting to deal with the political fallout.

I’ve been trying to find out who’s opposing him this go-around, as last I’d heard the DNC’s choice was a retired 3rd generation Navy commander and she’s apparently pretty popular in the district. Not sure if she’s still gunning for the seat, but if so, she’s got my vote.
