Nobody Wants to Play Anymore
Today, Jim McCrery of Louisiana became the 17th Republican in the House to announce that he's not running for re-election. McCrery is the head Republican on the Ways and Means Committee and is reportedly depressed that he can't make its Chair, Charlie Rangel, see his point of view. In a completely unrelated note, McCrery has been dogged with rumors of bisexuality at least since 1992, when The Advocate published its exposé about his rumored bisexuality . Of course, he also says wants to spend more time with his family. [ CQ Politics , The Advocate via BlogActive ]
