Concur.

There are quite a few "likeable" Dims, that doesn't mean they won't toe the party line when it comes down to it and the pressure is on.

That is what happened on health care legislation. One or two more Senators in opposition would have changed the outcome. I don't think we can afford the risk of putting another Dim in office, regardless of his history and likeability.

Just my .02, YMMV.
