This is why Nancy Pelosi picked the wrong horse

This from Justin Rood over at TPMmuckraker:

In the last year, Democratic and Republican floor watchers say, Mr. Murtha has helped Republicans round up enough Democratic votes to narrowly block a host of Democratic proposals: to investigate federal contracting fraud in Iraq, to reform lobbying laws, to increase financing for flood control, to add $150 million for veterans' health care and job training, and to exempt middle-class families from the alternative minimum tax.

Hardly the "reformer" we need running things now is he? Just asking.
