voted for Obama in 2008....I have lots of repub friends that either voted for him or didn't vote at all so as not to vote against him...and it was because they wanted everyone to have healthcare and we definitely don't want endless war

what went wrong was the freaking aca is so expensive for the over 55 set, they felt conned so in 2012 it went back repub

brady only has the rep job because no one can afford to run against him

Bloomington should be part of the downstate carve out for a dem congresspeop (4 universities), Halverson won it in 08 but as soon as she got in it was "healthcare has to be budget neutral" and yea cops ,yea military so she lost in 2 yrs and we have a tea bagger from downsouth that is gun ho on tax cuts for billionaires

even my rich friends don't want that but they are only millionaires not billionaires
