Candlelight Vigil outside Senator Rockefeller's office in Fairmont, West Virginia, 12-16-09.

We stood in the freezing Christmas winter because we did not want him to vote for the health care reform bill.

The Senate passed the bill in the early morning hours of Christmas Eve while most Americans might be preoccupied. Rockefeller voted for the bill.

In 1993, Rockefeller knew West Virginians opposed Hillary care, but threathened to force it upon us whether we wanted it or not. He appears to be keeping this promise.
