" I don't think it was particularly progressive to vote against the Brady Bill five times."

"I don't think it was progressive to vote to give gun makers and sellers immunity. I don't think it was progressive to vote against Ted Kennedy's immigration reform."

What a great moment! I was clapping so hard when she said that!

Fortunately, his view did not prevail.

The financial collapse of the world economy and a domestic unemployment rate of 25% would have resulted. I guess this could be considered a "judgment" issue.

He had plenty of cover on this vote.

The whole point of TARP was O-M-G! I guess he didn't get the memo?
