I don't know of a good reporter who can really stick a story. Rob Golub was a good one though. <BR/><BR/>Ryan can vote the way he wants to and really doesn't expect any flack from his constituents. Personally, I don't like being pushed around by Ryan with bills that he should have voted YES on.<BR/><BR/>Ryan needs to be accountable. If you want to call if slamming, your choice of words.
