(4,358 posts)1. I wish I was living in Rep. Frost's district
Instead, I'm stuck with the 21st Century version of "Barney Fife": John Rutherford. (While he was sheriff of Duval County, my home was burglarized three times, and this sheriff's deputies never cracked a single case).
Please, fellow Dems, let's nominate a strong candidate to run against him in the upcoming mid-terms!

I may live in a "blue state" - New York - but I've been stuck with national embarrassment Stefanik! I sure hope that yours (and mine) is removed and replaced!

He makes me PROUD at a time when I have to look far and wide to want to keep my head up and just...breathe. Thanks for this one.
