Heh -- Bart Stupak to 'retire'

After being bought off with a few coins and allowing his bloc to vote for Obamacare, Stupak is now retiring from the House of Representatives. From CNN/Politics:

Michigan's Stupak retiring from Congress, sources say
U.S. Rep. Bart Stupak, a nine-term Democratic congressman from Michigan, will announce Friday he is retiring from Congress, Democratic sources close to Stupak said.

The anti-abortion Democrat has been facing opposition from both the right and the left for his eleventh-hour deal with the White House to support the administration's health care legislation.

Stupak said he struck the deal because he was convinced that the measure bans federal funding for abortion.

It will be interesting to see what happens to him next -- in about six months to a year. He was bought off -- now we just have to wait to see what the price was...
