Change of heart for previously hawkish congressman?

He asks a favor of his congressman

Matthew Mittelstadt writes Steve Lynch about the bill that lets telephone companies off the hook for spying on Americans:

... Please, Mr. Lynch, I beg of you to do everything you can to ensure that when this bill reaches the House chambers that it does not pass. It must not pass. The companies that engaged in this blatant, illegal, unconstitutional and frankly un-American surveillance should have their fates decided in the appropriate branch of government - Judicial - and not be the beneficiary of the Executive's wishes to sweep their transgressions under the rug to be forgotten about with the Legislature's help. ...

Please hold for Congressman Lynch

Everybody's favorite Democrat In Name Only congressman finally managed to get his campaign Web site up, a full three days before the election:

Now I will confess that while I am a friend of Al Gore, I did not help him invent the internet, so a little patience with me from time to time may be required. We are still working on pieces of the site and will add additional information as it develops.

Dear Rep. Lynch:

As one of your constituents, I am amazed that, in 2006, your campaign can't figure out how to put up a Web site. It's not rocket science. Go get some high school kid to help you.

Also:
Blue Mass. Group can't endorse Lynch; can't bring itself to back Robinson.

Devone asks:

Can anyone--anyone--come up with a coherent, logical reason as to why voters in Massachusetts' Ninth District should return Rep. Stephen Lynch to Congress on November 7?

It would be one thing if Lynch actually had some accomplishments to speak of, but can anyone point to anything he's done that has had tangible benefits for the residents of his district? ...

Congressman Robinson, I presume?

Devone ponders:

It will be interesting to see how the Massachusetts press will spin a Jack Robinson victory if he defeats unpopular incumbent Stephen Lynch on November 7. ...

Ed. Ninth District Note: I don't particularly like Lynch - I have never voted for him - but, honestly, the chances of Robinson beating him next month are about equal to my odds of being elected Prince of Wales.

Stephen Lynch: Man of no words

DedhamBlog ponders how Rep. Stephen Lynch keeps dodging debates with challenger Phil Dunkelbarger:

... Dunkelbarger may not succeed in his goal due to Stephen Lynch's 'no information voter' campaign, but Lynch will never get a vote from me and eventually he'll face a tougher race! ...

Ryan Adams, meanwhile, finds Lynch's declaration that a non-binding vote on "staying the course" in Iraq meant nothing, curious:

... He doesn't care - that's his common theme. He doesn't care about the Iraqis who are being maimed and slaughtered, doesn't care about the hundreds of billions we've spent in Iraq and certainly doesn't care about the people who live in the 9th Congressional District. ...
