“let me thank you, Mr. Meek, on behalf of my constituents and the people throughout this country for the vigilance that you and Ms. Wasserman Schultz and Mr. Ryan showed for the last 2 years, and in your case longer than that. There were a lot of things you could be doing late at night when Mr. Altmire and I might have caught you on TV into the wee hours. But you were out here spreading the message that it was time for working class, regular folks throughout this country to have their day here again. There had been enough time for the special interests and lobbyists and everyone else to have their day in Congress. It was time for regular people to have their day in the people's House. I want to add something. We use this term ``Republican leadership,'' and I think that is important. Because one of the things that you have figured out over the last couple of weeks is that there is a difference between the Republican leadership and a lot of the rest of the folks in the Republican Party.”
