I just heard on Fox that a member of the Black Caucus (how cone there is no white caucus?) just said he should step down...that’s got to be a drum roll...

One honest man does not make a Caucus. Maxine Waters runs things there, we will see what she has to say.

Actually response from the Caucus has been funny.

Here is some of it good for a laugh
Rep. Artur Davis (D-AL) Tuesday became the first member of the Congressional Black Caucus to demand that Rangel resign as Ways and Means chairman.

Davis is the first and only CBC member to call for Rangel’s ouster.Davis is running for governor of Alabama and is not standing for re-election to the House this fall.

“Our caucus is just like any other caucus,” said CBC member Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA). “We don’t have 42 members in lockstep.”

“I think Mr. Davis ought to step aside,” sneered CBC member Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL). “He ain’t here much. And if he’s speaking for anyone black, he ain’t speaking for me.”

Reporters Tuesday asked House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) if he thought Rangel could survive a vote of no confidence.

“I think he could,” Hoyer said.

Doesnt sound to me like Rangel is going anywhere.
