Another House Republican Announces His Retirement
January 14, 2010 at 4:28 PM 1 comment
Remember all the hullabaloo a couple weeks ago about how congressional Democrats were deciding not to run and they were dropping like flies?
Well, get a load of this from Politico:
Rep. John Shadegg (R-Ariz.) announced today that he will retire from the House at the end of his term. … Shadegg, an Arizona conservative elected in the Republican revolution of 1994, becomes the 14th House Republican not to run for reelection this cycle.
I think a total of 6 Democrats have decided not to run but here we have the 14th Republican deciding not to. The “liberal media” would have us believe the Democrats are in shambles, when in reality roughly twice as many Republicans have bowed out.
When, oh when, will we have a decent media?
