A report from tonight's NBC Nightly News explains why some Republicans in Congress (and Democrats, for that matter) don't much give a damn about public opinion - how and why THEY figure their positions are guaranteed:
“When Republicans won the majority of state houses in 2010, it insured they’d be redrawing the maps in those states, and lo and behold, it paid off in 2012. Nationwide Democrats running for congress GOT 1.1 MILLION MORE VOTES, but Republicans sent 33 more members to the House.”

"In 2012 Both Republicans and Democrats had a paltry 15% approval rating, and yet 90% of House members were re-elected."
