It took courage to make that vote, especially with so much on the line.
Yet, that is exactly what they did, thinking nothing of their political future, they put their sights on the millions of Americans who will now be helped by this remarkable piece of legislation!

Jerymn,
Please pay very close attention - being voted out of office is not the same thing or as big of a deal as when your party leaders refuse to stand behind you and refuse to give you support. You are a political sunk duck and they know how to sink you. There is a big difference between the two. Do you understand that part of political maneuvering? Threats from party leaders hold much more weight than the voters.
If you get voted out, they move you around and keep you under their wing. If they get rid of you, you are gone. Do you understand that part?
Don't think for one minute that arms were not twisted. We know that they were. Stupak is not that stupid. He just got played and he went along with it. He had no choice.
