I'd sure love to know what happened to him over his vacation in August. It was as if someone was feeding him 'stupid-pills'. Actually, I think it started when his SS Reform agenda was given the bums-rush.
Think that is when it started too. His effort on SS reform was half assed, in the spring. And after that he just stopped fighting back. He became that GOP punching bag, not answering any charges and everything became rudder less. Someone had to be feeding him stupid pills, because this years effort was pretty damned near close to an F.
