Consider Rep. Ted Yoho Of Florida

Accountability

Consider Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL), a Tea Party freshman whose outspoken stupidity on a default’s potential benefits, such as an improved U.S. credit rating, has provided a bit of dark humor in these dark days. Yoho, a large-animal veterinarian, announced months ago that he would never vote to raise the debt ceiling. Like most Republican candidates, he had no problem raising contributions from business interests, notably including contractors, insurance companies, manufacturers and agricultural processors — all of which presumably share the horror of default expressed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

I Am Bill “Big Oil” Young

Accountability
One of his staunchest allies, GOP Congressman Bill “Big Oil” Young just announced his retirement. This is BIG NEWS for three reasons:

1. Congressman Young’s announcement comes just days after a new poll showing him LOSING his re-election race.
2. This is a winnable race -- President Obama won this district just last year.
3. Young’s not the only one -- there are 16 other House Republicans losing their races after the Republican government shutdown......here
