1. Ford Jr. joins 'pro growth' wing of the DLC

Ford seems to be drifting more to the right as time goes on.

I live in his district & voted for him in every previous election. But because of his support for reauthorizing the patriot act, the Real ID act, the banckruptcy refom bill & now this he's lost my vote.
