>>What kind of threats did they get?

I wrote the Congressman from this district, NC 7th and told him that the next time I campaigned for a Democrat I would campaign against him. It wasn't so much a threat as a promise.

I also suggested that he out to become a Republican and be done with it so that we can work to elect an actual Democrat. So far, he has not done that.

Here is the weasel's website.
