Few at the beginning of this election cycle would have thought that Etheridge, first elected in 1996, was in any danger. Then this happened:
That, plus the Republican wave, was enough to doom Etheridge.
Now people can go up to Etheridge on the street and ask “Who are you?” The answer should be “An ex-congressman.”
You’re a congressman walking down the street when a student asks if you support the Obama agenda. Do you: C.) Bat his camera aside, grab his wrist, demand to know his name, and refuse to let go?
I though the student showed great restraint in not kicking him in the nuts, which he would have been legally justified in doing when Congressman Etheridge refused to let go.
