How about convening an emergency session of Congress, get some ideas
on the table, and *do* something?
My congressman lost in the primary to a challenger so he is out. The
general election is a formality. I live in a predominately Democrat
district.


He's still drawing a paycheck. Call him up and tell him to get back
to work.

I think he is more worried about where his paychecks will be coming from
in 2009. For a Democrat he was always out and about doing what he needed
to do to be seen and do what was needed for his constituents. In my
"town" of 300 or so residents we have a parade every year and there he
is right behind the mayor's car walking the 1/2 mile parade route waving
to the people being seen. Also, if any org or group wanted a tour of the
White House or Congress he had it set up within hours.


D'oh. Most U.S. Representatives of either party are after the same sort
of visibility and provide a high level of constituent services,
especially if they want to be re-elected.
