The most telling line from your article....

“They’re also pressing for passage of a poll-tested financing mechanism — a surcharge on income exceeding $1 million.”

So instead of leading by principle, they are simply leading by polls. That’s surely not what they were elected to do...let polls tell them what to do? What kind of men/women are these that let their spines blow with the wind?
