Republican dumped him
Admit you are lying to try and save little credibility your party has
your own link that YOU posted proves you wrong. How embarrassing is that?

Resignation
Cunningham announced that he would resign from the House at a press conference just after entering his plea. He submitted his official resignation letter to the Clerk of the House and to California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on December 6.[34]
Had Cunningham declined to resign, his role in Congress would have been very limited, as House rules do not allow members convicted of felonies to vote or participate in committee work pending an investigation by the Ethics Committee.[35] It is very likely that he would have been expelled from the House, as happened with Democrat James Traficant three years earlier. Under Republican caucus rules, he would have [not DID lose ]lost his subcommittee chairmanship.[36]
In marked contrast to his defiant stand earlier in the year, Cunningham was very contrite, sullen and overcome by emotion when he read his prepared statement announcing that he was stepping down:
"When I announced several months ago that I would not seek re-election, I publicly declared my innocence because I was not strong enough to face the truth. So, I misled my family, staff, friends, colleagues, the public—even myself. For all of this, I am deeply sorry. The truth is—I broke the law, concealed my conduct, and disgraced my high office. I know that I will forfeit my freedom, my reputation, my worldly possessions, and most importantly, the trust of my friends and family. ... In my life, I have known great joy and great sorrow. And now I know great shame. I learned in Viet Nam that the true measure of a man is how he responds to adversity. I cannot undo what I have done. But I can atone. I am now almost 65 years old and, as I enter the twilight of my life, I intend to use the remaining time that God grants me to make amends."[37]

no "tossing" by republicans at all. Your post...not mine.
owned.
was anyone defending him as Dems are Cold Cash?
Nope
your claim was not that republicans did not defend cunningham...your claim was that they tossed him the minute he got busted.
quit spinning. you got owned by your own post.
They did toss him. They had nothing to do do with him and did not lift a finger to help him
they did NOT toss him when he was busted as you claimed. He tossed himself when he was CONVICTED.
owned
Sure they did. They did nothing to help him and not one defended him
not helping him is not the same as "tossing" him.
you lose. and your own link did it.
Still spinning ans still lying
MM's has fallen and he can't get up
wow... you get kicked to the curb and while you are laying in the gutter, you proclaim how you kicked the other guy's ass. priceless.
whatever... the record here is clear.
spin away all you want.
proclaim victory all you want.
you said what you said...you cut and pasted what you did, and it proved you wrong.
sucks to be you.
Given how you have stepped in it over the last several weeks - it sucks tio be a loyal ass kissing Dem like you
Nothing is going your way and the news keep getting worse
I know of nothing I have "stepped in" over the last several weeks.
I know that I kiss no one's ass.... and that I speak my mind in my party all the time - and I know that at the county committee level, I am listened to. That is what is important to me.
I know that congressional democrats continue to be held in higher regard by the public than congressional republicans... a fact you continue to squirm away from.
I know that you continue to run away from the fact that your very own link disproved your stupid suggestion that democrats wait for convictions while republicans toss their bad boys as soon as they are busted.
I know that you have this incredible penchant to continue to proclaim victory even while lying bloody and prone from the curb-kicking you routinely get from me and most others who take the time to "debate" you.
