User Testimonials
"This idea has the potential to be another avenue for young people to become interested in learning how our government works, which I think makes it fascinating... One of the upsides to Fantasy Congress over Fantasy Baseball is that you don't really have to worry about your team being destroyed by injuries. Then again, there probably aren't many Fantasy Baseball owners who worry about losing their shortstop because he has ties to Jack Abramoff."

Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) 		"The initial reaction from the students was very high (we just started in two days ago).  Students were eager to pick their teams.  They did research, debated on political parties, and actually tried to figure out what the representatives they were picking stood for. I was impressed. I just wanted to say, "Thank You."  Your idea may have sparked some interest in an area that I feel is greatly underappreciated at the high school level.  I am sure it will get my Senior students more interested in voting, political issues, and the direction of the country."

Business Education Teacher 		"Hi guys, I just wanted to send along my congratulations for getting this off the ground.  It looks great!  I teach political science at Marquette University and have been kicking around various versions of this for a few years.  I actually did a full fledged league with my Congress class at Gettysburg College back in 2003 and we kept all of our own stats by hand!!!  I wish you all the best with this and hope that it works out well for you."

Professor, Marquette University
"Perhaps I should have asked first, or at the least warned you? I posted a link to Fantasy Congress into an early morning open thread on DailyKos.  We are all certified political JUNKIES and as soon as we even saw the phrase "Fantasy Congress" we knew this was dangerous.  This is going to be like crack cocaine for us after the elections. I hope your servers are ready for a rabid horde of fanatics headed your way! LOL. Great site by the way."

Student, Georgetown Law School 		"Hi! Got the rss feed from the NYT homepage sending me tidbits of info and news, and I just read about the fantasy congress. I have to say: bloody brilliant. I hope the Finnish media picks up on this, and maybe we get our own version of this splendid idea sometime in the near future. Keep it up!"

Matias, Åbo Akademi University, Finland 		"I am telling all of my friends and have recruited a group to play after the November 7th Election. I can't tell you how enough how incredible I think this website is... it will be a great learning tool and keep people more active in watching legislation from its origin."

Lee Everett Urban, State Representative Candidate (43rd District of Kansas)
"Guys, I learned about your site from today's NYT and think it's outstanding.  I'm going to use it for my Legislative Process class next semester.  Keep up the good work!"

Assistant Professor, University of New Mexico 		"Your site is like crack for me, since we debate about Congress and your Research tab is essential for finding information since both House's web sites are horrible to find anything and distill to something useful. It's a real service."
Shawn 		"I just wanted to say that this is an absolutely brilliant site!  What better way to get children interested and involved in politics?  I wish this had been around when I was in high school; I'd have learned more! Thanks!"
