Nomo;
Wow ! I hear you there, and can't argue very much.
Generally speaking, the northeastern political scene is rotten, being infested with parasites (liberals). But allow me to speak for the decent ones (conservatives).
The liberal bastions are the cities, while the rural areas are conservative and the suburbs split. We do have some good, conservative Congressmen and a personal friend, Congressman Tom Reynolds, is a great example.
Tom believes in all the traditional American values, is completely pro 2nd amendment and would get along very well with most of the guys on this forum, I am sure.
I was a parts manager for an IH dealer in the late 60s, and Tom, as a college student at Kent state worked for me during summers.
He showed much promise then and we became friends.
Although he regrets the deaths of those students during the foolish Kent State riots..he places the responsibilities upon the rioters, rather than the NG.
You will be hearing of Tom in the future, especially if the Republicans regain the house..he may become Speaker of the House.
Yes, Nomo we do get some good ones, elected by the rural regions..but they have to be in the house of Representatives not Senators..since the state as a whole ( or hole) is carried by the liberal cities.
