I can't see punishing Martin to get at Reid/Schumer. Chambliss is the lowest of the low. He compared triple Vietnam amputee Max Cleland to bin Laden. I'm fine with direct contributions to Martin.-- Jim White
I agree that Chambliss is a lower life form than slime mold, but we will never make a point if we have nothing to lose. This is why the Dems disrespect those who want accountability both within the party and the government overall. Dissenters always have nowhere to go because we won't cut off our nose to spite our face. Martin isn't going to win, so even in this case the impact will be muted, but if dissenters always back away from the negative feedback lesson, the Dems will always disrespect dissent. One never teaches a toddler anything if you back away from every timeout.
