I love it. Does not matter who the person is or what they stand for. As long as they have a pulse and will vote the party line they are accepted in the Democratic party. What ever happened to being your own person in the Democratic party with your own points of view. Oh that's right...ask Joe Lieberman that question.
As for Shuler running it should not matter how he performed as a pro athlete (as long as it was respectable) but whether or not he is qualified for the job and can represent his people effectively in Congress.
