Just Doing What They Have To Do
Elected official’s motivations matter. There is no better example of motivations than this particular vote. These two men should have voted in unison, for or against Alito. Conrad’s concern for re-election prevented that from happening. Had Dorgan also voted in favor of Alito, I would have been complementary to the both of them. Because their votes were split is perfect evidence to me why only thirty-four percent of Americans feel Congress people do a good job. They only do what they should when the fear of losing an election is hanging over their heads.
My sentiments exactly.
