The pledge wasn’t enough, but it’s a start.

Here's that the Pledge is: a tool that allows Republicans to say "Yes we do, here it is - go look at it" when confronted by Dems who charge "You are just the Party of No, you have no plan."

That's really all that it is, and no reasonable person should expect it to be anything other than a high-level starting point. And certainly not the end-all/be-all of how the Republicans will govern if they are returned control of the House.

This article strikes me as an attempt to sow division and dissension within the GOP and Conservative Movement at a key point leading into the election. Tick off Conservatives by pointing out all the things that aren't in it in an attempt to demoralize them on the verge of a big win.

There's going to be a LOT more articles like this in the next few weeks, intended to peel Conservatives off of the attempt to retake the House.
