Don't think of it any other way than Dennis Moore strongly believes in the house National Healthcare Bill WITH a Public Option. This wasn't some vote about which he was strongly conflicted. This wasn't a vote in which he lost sleep over what he AND his constituents wanted and what his party expected him to do at all. He voted for this bill because he liked it. Plain and simple.
Why can I say this with confidence? 31 other Democrats from conservative areas voted against it and it still passed by 5 votes. He could have voted against it and pull what I call a Toplikar. In other words vote against something because it looks good to your constituents knowing your vote won't make the difference and it will still pass.
I have a bolder prediction to make in the wake of this vote. Dennis Moore either won't run for reelection next year OR he will only put in a less than half hearted effort. I'm beginning to think there might be a surprise announcement that he isn't running. He can blame it on death threats, or he can let rumors about his own health regarding early dementia go unchallenged but I am starting to think there is no way this guy can treat his 
constituents this way, still call himself a Blue Dog Democrat and come back here and run for reelection. Either that or simply put this guy has the biggest brass balls I've ever seen. To think he can come home and tell people he is a closet conservative on fiscal issues and progressive on social issues......er the typical JOCO Moderate Republican and then be Nancy Pelosi's bitch lap dog on the Hill is beyond the pale of thinking he is unbeatable. Either way......this next election is going to be fun. I'm fired up and not fired up mad like some might think. I'm fired up happy like an Olathe North football player on Friday night fired up. I'm fired up like the rednecks from Spring Hill on payday heading to Bonita Flats. (Seriously, click this link....you didn't know this shit existed in SOJOCO) Okay, I'll confess I went there for my bachelor party but I've heard that Bunny no longer works there and that was a long time ago. Really. Long. Time. Ago. I'm fired up like any team in the NFL when they see the Chiefs on their schedule. I'm fired up like Mark Teahen must have felt when he learned he was traded out of Kansas City. I'm fired up like.....well you get the picture. I'm clearing my calendar right now, hell, I might even take vacation next year just to work against Dennis Moore. Thank you God, I've been waiting for this day. Dennis Moore.......this weekend you signed your political death warrant.

Stay classy Dennis!!!
