Who the hell is this guy and why does he matter? I mean, I know who he is, but what gives him the power...especially to have representatives elected to represent US, signing pledges to HIM? He has money, but apparently has never done anything worthwhile. He's a bit treasonous, in fact, and seems like a scruffy, weird guy when he makes an appearance. I would never vote for anyone who'd take orders from this guy. If he had a counterpart on the liberal side, I'd be just as leery.
