Though someone on Red Mass Group said Bielat no longer living in district. Could move though?
To: kabar
No way he’d challenge Warren in a primary..<P.
He’s retiring because the GOP will control the House for the rest of the decade..and being a “ranking” member sucks...

Here's his statement:
"To win we would need to run a very ugly and personal campaign and there are some things' even I, Barney Frank won't stoop to."

Ol’ Bawney surrendered his seat a loooooong time ago.
To: Sub-Driver
...probably he got an offer he couldn’t refuse, go or go to jail. He probably made millions on “insider trading” while “shorting” the market

Rush said same thing (GOP will control House rest of decade etc.) a minute ago
To: Sub-Driver
Evidently, he’s done all the damage he thinks he can get away with and is bailing out while the bailing is still an option.
If we had a GOP with any balls, this pervert would be occupying a jail cell sometime in early 2013...

“Barney Frank withdraws from body politic to enter annals of history.” Um, hasn't he been entering annals for some time now?

man... the world has changed so much in the last few years, nearly all the all “bad guys” both foreign and domestic or now dead, dying, gone, or soon to be gone. These are names I have lived with nearly my entire adult life... and they are all just... going away.
It’s almost surreal.
To: Sub-Driver
Can’t wait to find out why.
To: GOPsterinMA
His district was re-drawn, taken away was New Bedford and Fall River. Lot of his welfare votes in those towns.
To: Sub-Driver
Good, as long as we still get to hang the corrupt queer bastard.

He will be busy leading the “Occupy Uranus” movement...
Actually, this is big.
The Dems internal polls must be terrible.
To: IbJensen
Maybe he wants a new career as a defensive/offensive coach?

Rush ( and/or his staff) lurk..we've long known that..
Not only will the GOP keep the Hosue for the rest of the decade, but the GOP majority will increase..by as much as 20-30 seats, and the overall GOP caucus will become far moe conservative..that's the REAL NEWS
The House Dems are screwed...soon all the senior Dems will be members of the CBC...they NEVER retire..and that's gonna put a whole new "face" of the Dem party...they are, for the most part, unintelligible idiots..
