I've covered Van Hollen since circa 1999. He's actually not a "grandstander." In his first Congressional bid, he was the workhorse vs the showhorse. He out-hustled Mark Shriver who had far more money and had been on the cover of Time Magazine as a next-gen Kennedy. He won with an army of volunteers.

Thurmond embarrassed his fellow southern segregationists, who appeared "weak" in comparison. They complained that his effort was always a showhorse spectacle rather than a true filibuster, which required a team effort.

It was especially meaningful to me because he is known as a workhorse, not a showhorse. I love how fired-up he got in support of @mcbride.house.gov !

I’m a workhorse, not a showhorse. I’ll always show up for my constituents, day in and day out.

Rep. Underwood is a workhorse, not a showhorse.
Mendota families were driving hours for basic medical care. So I fought to bring home $1,015,000 to fix that.
Medical. Dental. Behavioral health. All under one roof for Illinois families.
Rural communities deserve world-class care close to home.
