I'll be watching very carefully as our current Congresswoman's political career develops. She's in her third term and has gotten herself placed on some pretty important committees--Barney Frank's Financial Services Committee for one.

It hasn't escaped my attention that a bunch of banks, insurance companies and investment banks were the major contributors to the almost $600,000 given to the little old grandma from Brooksville. I'll bet they gave her all that money because she was such a nice little old lady, don't you think? And now she says she may run for the Senate seat being vacated by Mel Martinez. Does a Senate seat mean you get to eat higher off the hog?

Does anyone think that the needs of The Villages is real high on the list of things she worries about every day in her job in Congress? Even though we're clearly the biggest concentration of voters with common interests in the Fifth Congressional District. I think my new policy of never voting for an incumbent may apply to her in the 2010 mid-term elections. It may be time to get someone with less experience but who may actually "worry" our needs more than Ginny Brown-Waite.

This Congress job appears to be a lot more fruitful than her donut store in Brooksville ever was.
