Reply #21: he is my senator [View All]

and i have almost always voted for him even when he was a republican...he was a republican before the rabid right wing hijacked that party and his decision to leave that party was a very difficult one for him to make..he truly is a moderate but fiscally conservative..represents very well the people of vermont..we are very proud of his courage and i can't see him losing his position any time soon....and for all those who thought his leaving the party was a stunt to get face time on the tv could not have been more wrong..jeffords happens to be one of those senators you rarely see because he does not like that spotlight...a bit refreshing for someone in his position
