POLITICAL CRACK UPS

[HairOfTheDog]

Well, he is a republican in a sea of democrats kinda like a mascot or something. never able to originate a bill or have any influence over it.

Did you read his record at the link Mags? 

He originated several bills and voted on dozens and dozens of others (thus influencing them).

Some districts in Southern California have been among the most conservative in the country, as we've discussed before.

Anyway, by your logic, every Republican Representative in every primarily blue state is worthless, and every Democrat Representative in every primarily red state is worthless.  But, that's surely not the case for many reasons.

If it were the case, you wouldn't have both parties fighting so hard in nearly every state to keep Representatives from their own parties in place and turn districts from blue to red (and vice versa).
