True. However, one of our newest conversative, "pilot partisan" advocates, Rep Kinzinger (R-IL), who I might add supports #denyNAI, is fully in favor of the Ex-Im bank. That's just his opinion, man.
It goes to show you'll never get a "perfectly molded" candidate for all of our issues. But all we can do is try to talk to *everyone* on the Hill (not just the D's, not just the R's), and ask them to support our issues and be able to provide them with well-thought-out reasoning.
I *wish* I could find more balance on the hill so that I could have the trust of the pilots I try to convince that ALPA PAC is a good idea.
