And Then There Were 63...

Three weeks post-election and losing Democrat Dan Maffei finally gets with the program. H edoesn't get it, but he's gone, either way.

"The electorate may have changed tremendously from 2008 to 2010 in terms of who turned out to vote, but I kept my pledges to the people who elected me and I will forever be proud of that. Not only do I not apologize for my positions on the stimulus, the health care bill, financial reform, and the credit card bill, but my only regret is that there were not more opportunities to make healthcare more affordable to people and businesses and get more resources to the region for needed public projects — particularly transportation and public schools," he said.

He's only sorry he couldn't inflict more damage on his constituents. What a sport.
