Come on Democrat congressmen and senators! You all heard the great Obama talk about sacrifices! He was talking about your political futures. Now sacrifice your jobs for the great Obama, he will thank you, and let you see the oval office {5 minute limit}.

You forgot, "You know that committee you chair? You'll be losing it IF you don't follow my lead." And money going to your state? Count that out too.

Can you be so committed that you're prepared to let everything else go by the wayside for the time being? That's great, but don't become obsessive about it.
