        Nothing to see here, just another cheap politician who doesn't give a damn about the people he "represents", their opinion, or their best interests.

        How about the fact he thinks post term abortions are an option? That’s why he should resign.

        There is no racist photo. There is a photo that has now been deemed racist 40 years after the fact. I hope all of the critics have never done anything 40 years ago that today is held to different standards. Grow up.
