"How nervous are Republicans that the Iraq war could hurt them in November? Nervous enough that Rep. Christopher Shays visited the same senior center twice in one week to defend his stand. The nine-term House veteran is in full campaign mode, explaining his unbending support for the war to confounded voters such as Anne Donnelly, a resident of the Marvin. She has supported Shays in previous elections but complained that his bullish stance on Iraq seemed at odds with news reports that portray a country in a tailspin".Of all the congressional seats that need to be taken from Republicans this November, Christopher Shays' would be one of the last I would like to see go. He's generally very moderate but his blind faith behind Bush's ridiculous Iraq mess is more than enough reason to vote for Diane Farrell.
