More like his existence I would say. If he knew the other 21 were in the bag I am sure he would jump too.

Peter King’s comments speak of ‘making sure’ there are others on the GOP side willing to follow his lead.

He would do if 20 others were on the team with him.

A finger in the wind business as usual politician for now.

>>blow with the wind

Exactly. In his own words, he tells us that he has no principles. He won’t take a stand for what he believes in. He just wants to be sure he’s siding with the majority.

Peter King already has shown his true colors.

Yellow.

Pffft!

**************

Yes, but he’s not a very bright yellow.

I think this means internal polls are showing that the slim-down of government may be helping, not hurting. He’s keeping his feet on both sides of the fence to see which way to jump.

“It’s not going to go anywhere,” he says, and he’s right. Like I said Friday, it’s one thing to bash the Cruz wing and call for an end to the shutdown, it’s another to promise your vote to Nancy Pelosi. If you’re going to jump off that bridge, you want to make sure the other 21 Republicans who’ve called for a clean CR are prepared to jump with you. Otherwise, you’re risking a ferocious conservative backlash over a discharge petition that’ll ultimately fall short of the 217 it needs, which means you’ve risked everything for nothing.
Thanks 11th_VA.
