YAY!

Tim Griffin, the Tea Party Repub that represents my district, has decided not to seek re-election! I'm so freakin' happy! One less TPR seat in the House. He is citing "family concerns," but I think it's more likely that his constituents (including me) have slammed him via phone, email, twitter, FB, etc. for his part in the government shut down.

Yay! I hope the tea party gets driven out of nearly every office. Then maybe the government could accomplish something again.

(Oh, did you see that a judge in Texas switched parties from Rep. to Dem?)

I'm afraid he's planning on running for Governor.
