*Ted Yoho (R-FL) has been running all over the place talking about how much support he has in his district. Well, not every republican in his district supports his vote to shut the federal government down. My advice to these moderate republicans is when its time to vote for a representative to send to Congress again, check the bottom of the boat to make sure it is completely free of holes. BI:Jeremiah Tattersall has never gotten so many calls from moderate Republicans who want an end to the burgeoning fiscal debates in Washington, D.C. The field staff for the North Central Florida Central Labor Council, Tattersall is a point man of sorts for liberal opposition to Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.), a member of a growing conservative group in Congress that has taken center stage in the battles over government funding and raising the nations debt ceiling. But these days, Tattersall is getting calls from research professors who have had their research thrown off course during the shutdown. From an Evangelical pastor who is concerned about the lack of funding to the Women, Infants, and Children program and Head Start. Hes even gotten calls from clergy members asking him to set up a situation in which theyd be arrested in Yohos office here. Im speaking as a Republican and as a Christian. And Ted Yoho is just too beholden to the Tea Party, Singleton said in an interview. Ive been a Republican my entire life. But hes playing dice with peoples lives.
