Are There Any Republicans Left?

Another one down.

WASHINGTON - The dean of Louisiana's congressional delegation, Rep. Richard Baker, has decided to step down from Congress after 22 years to take a job in the private sector representing investors he has spent a career regulating.

The announcement by the Baton Rouge Republican was not unexpected and makes him the third member of the state's seven-member House delegation to resign or announce plans to resign in the past two months.
