51. New Joisey here . . .
Same - 2 Dem Senators, one Repuke congressman (Mike "my main residence is in Maryland" Ferguson). Steve Brozak ran against Ferguson this past election and came pretty damn close to removing this slime.

:hippie:

5. Republicans all around
Santorum, Specter, and Bill Shuster. assholes, all of them

We need to take down Santorum in 2006. Shuster may go down in the primaries to a better Republican.

13. There's no one in the Senate
I'd rather see go down, than Santorum. I understand it's possible. We need to get behind the dem who runs against him, and flood him/her with campaign dollars.

(BTW, my delegation is Leahy, Jeffords and Sanders. Plenty to be proud of.)

16. I'll see you and raise you!
Barack Obama, Dick Durbin and JAN SCHAKOWSKI!!! The most rockin' representation of any Congressional District in the country. At least that's my opinion!

23. Me too. Jan rocks.
She stood up and objected. So did JJ,Jr. but it may have just been a favor for dad. Either way, more of the IL delegation (Emmanual included) should have joined in. I'm proud to call Jan my rep. She represents me well.

9. Arizona -
Two repubs in the senate

1 repub in the House of Representatives. Young, handsome Mormon with a whole bunch of kids. When he first ran for the house in 2000, he promised to term-limit himself to 3 terms, now has reneged on that and says he'll be running again in 2006. Dems didn't even run anyone against him in 2004, his only opposition was a Libertarian.

10. 1 awesome Senator--Barbara Boxer!
Our other Senator, Diane Feinstein, is more of a DINO, though she has intro'd legislation to abolish the electoral college.

Then there's our neanderthal neocon Repug Congressman, Duncan Hunter.
He's been around forever, but we're working on a new strategy.
With luck, we'll launch a "Dump Duncan" website this time to educate the masses about his truly horrific voting record!

19. 2 Pukes (Senate)
Edited on Sun Jan-09-05 11:12 AM by Jawja
and 1 great Dem (House).

(I DID have a bigoted, self-righteous, crusty old FOOL who sold out his party to get some publicity for himself. At least now the new Senator is a Puke in NAME, too and probably a lot more moderate than the former.)

Edited on Sun Jan-09-05 03:42 PM by mvd
One of my senators is Santorum :puke: :puke:, and the other one, Specter, will get conservative if the wind blows that way.

I used to have Hoeffel as my representative, but now have Bush stooge Gerlach. About the only issue Gerlach didn't vote with Bush on was ANWAR drilling.

35. 2 Democrats, 1 Republican
Sen. Ron Wyden (D)
Sen. Gordon Smith (R)
Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D)

I have no major problem with any of them. Blumenauer represents his district well. The two senators reflect Oregon's split political nature, leans Democratic, but moderate Republicans can do well also.

36. Three (generally) good Dems, Holt, Lautenberg and Corzine.
Congressman Rush Holt--the Princeton scientist turned politician. He has a great bumper sticker which unfortunately I wasn't able to get. Says "My Congressman IS a rocket scientist." Good guy and a leader in the fight for election reform. Senators Frank Lautenberg and John Corzine. Sadly none of my guys were on the right side of the election protest and I'm rather surprised at Holt because he sponsored the bill to require paper trails on voting machines. On the whole though, I like my congressional delegation very much.

39. Alabama
One bonafide, Kool-Aid sippin, true believer in Jeff Sessions.
One former Democrat turned Republican traitor Richard Shelby

Congressman is Spencer Bachus, who was just re-elected after surviving a primary challenge from Roy Moore's lawyer, who claimed Bachus was too liberal (that's like saying Milosevic was too easy on the Kosovo Albanians).

Hillary and Schumer get chastised here a lot but I really they're both pretty good. I have Sue Kelly as a representative, and honestly I don't know what the hell she does. To live in NY and have a Repuke rep really sucks.

Blue all the fuck around in Hawaii.

Two Dem Senators: Inouye and Akaka
Two Dem Represenatives: Abercrombie (big Dean supporter) and Case (OK, but I still wish I had Mink)

We haven't had a Republican representing Hawaii in Washington for about 15 years.

I see Abercrombie at least a few times a month in my store.

Ed Case is my represenative.
