It's Steve Israel. He ran the DCCC for the previous two cycles, where House Democrats suffered the biggest losses in history.

I believe term limits is more pressing..........


Campaign finance reform would effectively do the same thing if we eliminate outside spending and impose strict spending caps that are much more reasonable and achievable by challengers to remove the incumbent protection issue. But that said I'm not opposed to term limits.

So I looked this up on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Confessions-Congressman-X/dp/1634139739) and learned:

- it's only 84 pages long
- it is self-published by a travel writer, who allegedly heard these tidbits over the past 20+ years, some of which was spent working on the Hill

Methinks the blind items and placement in conservative publications are merely efforts to drive sales.

First guess. Anyone else?


He's a Republican, so no.

Whoever he is, he's a coward. Seems he has legitimate critiques of the system. Instead of trying to effect meaningful change, he tries to make a buck off some sort of "expose". Gross. It undermines whatever he is trying to do.


I agree. I hope he is outed. I want to know the man who has such contempt for the voters, the process, and his job.

Republicans sure don't want to live among the poor. All they do is hurl insults and paint the poor as all just being a bunch of crackheads, welfare recipients and illegal aliens and threaten to make them starve homeless on the streets.


As they say, the Democratic Party: the very rich, the very poor, and morons in between.
