And I still vote for him. Every time.

I hope he runs for the Mikulski Senate seat, even though it would be against Donna Edwards, who I also like a lot.

From what I know of them, Van Hollen and Edwards are pretty good themselves. But Cummings has really impressed me these last few months.

He reads everything, attends all the meetings, and points out how the Repubs have been unfair and have gone off course, over and over again.

Thank you, Rep. Cummings.
