the first paragraph--and I am paraphrasing but not by very much--starts out by saying: You remember when you were growing up and you had this kid who was never happy? You couldn't win a game because he kept changing the rules in the middle of the game, and if you didn't allow the change, all he did was whine about it? They went on for long, maybe six or seven paragraphs, saying: What is going on in Washington? Trying to change the rules in the middle of the game is un-American. This is from Fallon, NV. So the answer is yes, the American people are speaking. If you can get a newspaper in Fallon, NV, to write a harsh criticism of the Republican leadership we have in the Senate, they should listen because, believe me, I got 21 percent of the vote in that county.
