The number one issue in 2006 for voting AGAINST Republican candidates was CORRUPTION.

Pundits were surprised at the time, but most of us here were not shocked, at all. Some of us even describe ourselves as anti-corruption Democrats.

This is the most corrupt WH and Congress in modern history.

November 2018. May we ALL be seen as anti-corruption voters.

the corruption issue and follow up on it afterwards - none of this ‘moving on’ and claiming it’s for the good of the country when the country wants the corrupt held accountable.....at long last. Had Dems followed through in 2007 and 2009, there would have been no turnover in the 2010 election.
