Did anyone catch Roy on Rachael Maddow's show last night? He is a Repuke Obama appointed as Sec. of Transportation. Rachael asked him why Judd backed out of his appointment to Sec. of Treasury. He said he couldn't understand it as Judd had been going around actively campaigning for the job. Rachel asked him if he thought the Repukes "got" to him. LaHood said, "I have no reason to think that happened but I have no reason to think it didn't happen." Quote may not be exact but that's the gist of what he said. I DO think the Repukes got to Judd and jerked him up short.
4. He's from the IL state legislature which isn't as crazy as the US senate in it's
bipartisanship. He has known Obama since he was a state legislator. The repubs in IL are much more moderate. He doesn't have much to lose by dissing his insane party when they are evil.
