Did Castle vote for or against Cap and Trade? Maybe we can agree on that vote.

He voted for it, and he was dead wrong. However, with the Republicans in charge of the Senate, he won't get the chance to vote for it again, because the Committee chairs won't let such garbage get to the floor.

That's one of the reasons that Control is so important. Whoever controls the Senate, also controls the calendar. Thus, they can determine what gets brought up for a vote.

Who is in charge of the Senate after the November election and before most of the new Senators are sworn in? That would be Harry Reid and he has promised a Lame Duck session! How do you think Castle will vote on Cap and Trade a second time during that Lame Duck session?

>>>That’s one of the reasons that Control is so important.<<<

Since it is most likely, according to many seat counters, that the Senate will be very close - quite possibly 50-50 maybe 51-49 with Biden as VP you got NOTHING.

Put Mike Castle into that situation and what do you have?

Remember Jim Jeffords - Remember Arlen Specter

Castle has bought in to the Liberal ideology - read his press release as to why he voted for Cap and Trade - he comes right out and tells you that he relied on CAP Center for American Progress - and a New Hampshire consultant who specializes in showing companies how they can put in impossible to afford and never to be profitable technology with Government grants.

You do know CAP don’t you - That organization that is funded by George Soros - Run by John Podesta - and you do remember their environmental/energy/green expert - Van Jones?

Don’t think for a minute you can depend on Castle -

If you want a comparison, keep in mind that the ACU score for McCain is 84% and Castle is 52% - Castle, who jumped on the Government payroll one year out of college and has stayed there his entire life has no clue what life is like outside of Government!
