Re-elect what's his name

Not looking good for the incumbent

Feb. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Just 8 percent of Americans want the members of Congress re-elected, according to a CBS News-New York Times poll taken nine months before roughly one-third of the Senate and the entire House face voters.

That number sounds good for us and our pocket books, but there is one issue this article leaves out. Most people don't like Congress, but they like their Congressman. So it always looks good and everyone is shouting to vote the bums out, but to leave their bum alone.
Hopefully, people will wake up and get rid of the whole lot and start fresh. I predict that only 40 new Congressmen will be seated, although the closer to 100 it goes, the better for us.
