It doesn't hurt candidates to criticize them (Republicans in the House), because the criticism is shared with their Republican voters. Most are unhappy with corruption and spending . . . so their charge is to prove they are the most anti-corrupt. They are competing for mantle of who will be the toughest on the deficit.  -   Gary Jacobson     Quotes
