Adam Smith( "d" -WA) joins the Repubs on the Patriot Act.

This man was my Congressman for a year and a half. I was so disappointed with him that I supported the Libertarian candidate in 2002. Once again, this man justifies my reason for being disgusted with certain members the Democratic Party these days.

I know he co-chairs the John Kerry campaign in Washington state but jeeminee christmas, this guy is so DINO, I wished somebody from the Democratic Party would challenge him. He is like Lieberman and Zell Miller. An embarassment to the party.

1. Have the same dilemma with Stenholm and (Chet) Edwards, TX

Stenholm is my rep now, Edwards is the presumptive rep after Texas arm-twisting redistricting. Didn't expect much from Stenholm, but was surprised to see Chet Edwards, who is supposedly a yellow-dog dem (I'll vote for a yellow dog before I vote for a Republican) vote for this.

A dilemma for me. I want to see more Dems running Texas but if it's a Dem that stands with the Republicans, including Tom Delay, from my state, it's a Hold-Your-Nose-And-Flush vote if I do.

3. I live in a repub district already

and one of my senators is Feinstein the DINO, i feel your pissoffidness. I hope Pelosi runs for Feinstein's seat when she retires, hopefully sooner rather than later.
