Don’t know why yet. Calls are going out. Tune in this afternoon on the show and watch this space for updates.
I’m still trying to track this down on the “why” question.
Was it too much pressure from Pelosi after he signed the discharge petition with Walden?
Was it too much pressure from his announced opponents in a year that will see gains by Republicans?
Did he want to get out now instead of going down with the Obama ship?
Is there a personal issue he’s not telling us?
Is Pelosi running someone against him in the primary or withdrawing NDCC funds?
