On Tuesday, a train derailed in East Rochester, just a few hundred feet from the Northern border of the 29th. As a member of the House Transportation Committee, Randy Kuhl is all over it, calling for hearings and issuing statements.

The fallout from the loss of earmarks has begun. Today's Rochester Democrat and Chronicle has a long report on the impact of lost pork. While he laments the possible loss of funding, Kuhl says that "the system has been totally abused and needs to be corrected".

God, doesn't he have better things to do?

Hold it. This is a good thing to do and smart politics, too. He has been trying to find something, anything, to put him on the map in the Rochester area where now, twice, Randy has run poorly. This sort of attention to grassroots constituent needs if what keeps getting this "loveable? rogue" re-elected. Or used to, at least, stretching back to his State Legislature days.
