re: #240 Obdicut

Why are you sure of that?

Short answer: Because his stroke has left him disabled, so someone trying to make an issue about this in a primary would just end up looking like an asshole. That being the case, Kirk would better off politically in this state having voted for the treaty. So I don’t need to know his heart, as I know the politics.

Not just Rick Santorum, but the GOP at large, Dark. Only 8 GOP senators voted for it. So why focus on Santorum, rather than the GOP in general? Too uncomfortable to really admit what this means about the GOP?

No, I’m just flinging mud at someone who I thought was better than whom he has just shown himself to be.
