[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by SuperChiefFan</i> <br /><br />I wonder how many politicians from either party support Amtrak by actually <b>riding</b> the trains on a regular basis. I suspect only a handful actually do, and that's probably a generous 'guestimate'. It's ironic that none of the politicians wants to speak too loudly about actually slaughtering Amtrak, yet they b*tch and moan about what it will cost to keep it on life-support--and giving it a last minute reprieve. Pity Mr. Dunn; what's he to do when faced with two-faced monsters across the table? I'd like to tell the boys in D. C. to put up or shut up. This bickering year after fiscal year has grown tiresome. <br /> <br />RIDE THE TRAINS--AND GIVE YOUR CARS A BREAK, AMERICA![soapbox] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I know that all the DE politicans (Biden, Carper and Castle) ride the Acela to DC to commute. I was also in the local Amtrak station when Lieberman arrived to campaign. <br /> <br />
