[Legislurker]

Rangel is outspoken and a bit of a loose cannon. Remmeber, his big news splash was to sponsor legislation to reintroduce the draft. He is in the House where he runs his Committee like a fief. Ive intereacted with Rangel on a few occasions and he is cagey to say the least(not too good at poker though). Maybe, myabe he can hold sway in conference committee to get something done, but why would he expend political capital for us in that way? Maybe grade him high, but he doesn't need our money or support, his political star has risen as far as it ever will, and it won't fall by ignoring us.
