Oh, but Murtha is so much more than that! He’s also the King of Pork in the House. Murtha has become the poster child for out-of-control earmarking and naked power plays using taxpayer funds as his weapon. Not long ago, he almost found himself the focus of an ethics probe for openly threatening another Representative on the floor for challenging one of his earmarks. In that sense, he might be the perfect Clinton backer.clinton picked up one super yesterday and murtha today. (see my sidebar tally)
so far, obama has gained 16 since march 3 and clinton; net gain of 9. she lost one (hardt) and spitzer but it looks like paterson will replace spitzer. i've already included him in the count.
