I can't blame him for being absent on this vote. The Chicago and Detroit Politicians demand a vote for the UAW from their membership. The People of Petersburg want more of their taxdollars spent in better ways. The UAW is threatening trickle down economics if their $70k/year paychecks are cut. Even the waitresses of Tennessee are targeted by the UAW ads.

Nevertheless, the UAW Bailout Bill, aka Big 3 Bridge Loan, passed the House, in part because he didn't vote against it. Neither did he work with The Party to oppose it.
