It occurs to me that Eric Paulsen is in a unique position that will help determine his fate in the 2014 elections. If he continues to stand by helplessly, letting a handful of Tea Party extremists pull the strings of Speaker Boehner's leadership, we in his district, which has voted strongly for many democratic candidates in the past, will remember his inaction. Step up, Mr. Paulsen, take the reins and demand that this clean continueing resolution be brought to a vote. There is little likelyhood that you will get a more conservative challenger in your primary, and VERY likely that in the general election, voters will opt for a representative who puts US before party. This is your real chance to become the new Jim Ramstad. Take it!
