Ahoy, Matey! Your political career is sunk. Kiss your House seat goodbye. A better analogy might have been the Jonestown mass suicide. President Obama and Nancy Pelosi mixed up a big old batch of toxic Kool-aid and convinced 219 House Democrats to drink up.
Representative Baron Hill (D-IN) is an arrogant jerk. When a journalism student asked nicely why she couldn't film his town hall for a school project, he said, "This Is My Town Hall Meeting. I Set the Rules." The crowd booed and Congressman Baron felt the need to reinforce the statement. He said, "Let me repeat that one more time. This is my town hall meeting for you. And you are not going to tell me how to run my Congressional office. Now the reasons why I don't allow filming is usually the films end up on YouTube in a compromising position." Congressman Baron, you got the last sentence correct, but you forgot to confiscate cell phone cameras at the door. Zing!
