Politico:Bart Stupak D-MI has announced he will not seek reelection in 2010. Since changing his Health Care Reconciliation Act NO vote to Yes, under pressure and deals (bribes) from the Obama Administration, Stupak's chances of reelection in the Michigan 1st Congressional district have dwindled. Stupak initially refused to support the Reform Bill over language allowing for Federally funded abortions, and later changed his mind when Barack Obama signed an executive order (which is not a law)stating federal funds would not be available for abortion under his health reform act.
Stupak was under pressure from both the left and the right, before and after the health care reform votes. Apparently, he received calls at both his office and home.
A general surgeon Dan Benishek had announced his intent to run against Stupak. Visit Dan Benishek's website here at: danbenishekforcongress.com.
