of himself. Thankfully we made progress getting more moderate R's elected. When you live in a state like this you have to be able to move around a lot and make those decisions and we had some real hard work done by Dems to get that to happen.

If you live in a ultra-red state, they can take away your rep rights. You are held hostage.
