Is Parker Griffith in fact Peter Griffin? He really doesn't come across as terribly bright. His District voted for McCain, but it is a Democratic stronghold in state politics. The Democratic Party spent over a million dollars on securing his re-election last year, and several unions and others have already made large donations to the fund to re-elect him next year. Will that 2010 money be repaid?
Warmist attacks on blue-collar jobs are one thing, but healthcare? Why was he ever in the Democratic Party? At the very least, why didn't he leave it decades ago? What does he think should instead have been the priorities for a Democratic House, Senate and President?
But Republicans, beware. Griffith has also come over because of the Reaganesque cancellation of the missile "defence" programme in Poland and the Czech Republic. He is a military-industrial man. And thus in no sense a conservative. In which case, of course, he has found his natural home in what little now remains of the Republican Party.
