There are some odd birds in Congress, I am sure there are lots of warnings of one kind or another all the time.<BR/><BR/>But the thing I do not understand, is what would Hastert have done? If Foley was not breaking any laws or rules, what exactly could be done?terryehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609746018265953069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16821859.post-1160096069358668762006-10-05T18:54:00.000-06:002006-10-05T18:54:00.000-06:00Terrye,That "poll" was a little sham acting by som...Terrye,<BR/><BR/>That "poll" was a little sham acting by some people who want Hastert's job. Right after they "leaked" it they realized that if the Reps don't win then Pelosi gets Hastert's job. A very, very stupid move.<BR/><BR/>I expect Hastert to step down in January and if he does I will be writing some very unkind things about Blount. The man is a feckless, sniveling, power seeker and would make a terrible Speaker. I'm not high on the job Boehner is doing either.Rick Ballardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11082425215912372067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16821859.post-1160094329645591022006-10-05T18:25:00.000-06:002006-10-05T18:25:00.000-06:00I looked at pajamas and they said something about ...I looked at pajamas and they said something about some poll indicating that if Hastert does not step down there will be big losses.<BR/><BR/>I think this is stupid. Why would that matter to people? I don;t think that most people will change their vote over this and the ones that might will not be satisfied with Hastert falling on his sword. The Democrats would just use it against them anyway. However, people are still predicting he will quit.<BR/><BR/>I don't much like the guy, but this should not be the reason he quits.terryehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609746018265953069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16821859.post-1160087372067495832006-10-05T16:29:00.000-06:002006-10-05T16:29:00.000-06:00I am watching Brit Hume right now and so far there...I am watching Brit Hume right now and so far there has been no mention of prank.
