I like Capuano because of something he said, not in a so-called town hall meeting, but to a constituent who is apparently of the classic town-hall "sauce for the goose is not sauce for the gander" stripe. This constituent was holding forth on the subject of health care reform and opining that she didn't want to be paying for any goddamn socialist health care. Capuano asked her what her family did for health care, and she volunteered that she had a daughter and son-in-law who were covered 100% by MassHealth. "So," said Capuano, "It's all right for your family, but everyone else can go to hell?"

Anyone who give it to one of their own constituents, straight from the shoulder, when that constituent is full of shit, is worth a vote.
