@ZacMcCrary @greggiroux @HowardMortman @NBCNews I don't think he was formally kicked out of the House Democratic Caucus. By that point though, in 2002, he was estranged from the party, and Republicans wanted no part of him amid corruption conviction. But he was expelled by the GOP-majority House in a near-unanimous vote. — PolitiTweet.org

@ZacMcCrary @HowardMortman A fascinating tale of two divergent careers for Dem-to-GOP lawmakers. Atkinson lost his 1982 reelection bid by 21 points, in a Pittsburgh-area district. Stump, of Arizona, went on to a long House career, capped by chairing the Armed Services Committee. — PolitiTweet.org
