No way they should be allowed to pass on taking a stance on this NYS issue. Any reasonable press would absolutely hammer them everytime they go out in public.
Hillary (and Smuckie too of course) needs to cough up whatever position she polls on it and then suffer the consequences.
That's a very liberal stance to take.
Liberals just talk what they think the public wants to hear, promote it, and when they implement it and it doesn't work, blame it on a Conservative when they are elected after the public gets fed up with their political shenanigans and then wait until it's forgotten and then start all over again.
