And why should a voter think that the Republican party will do anything better when they nominate the father of Obamacare (Romneycare)?
The Republican party lost because it is so concerned with appealing to everyone that it satisfies no-one.
If the Republicans hold together, they can prevent the passage of higher tax rates.
If the Republicans fracture, we will get the higher tax rates, but at least we will know who we cannot trust when it comes time to pick candidates in 2014.
The purpose of this plan is to conceal from the voters which members of the Republican caucus cannot be trusted on taxes. To my mind, anybody who goes along to keep this information from Republican primary voters is not to be trusted, so anybody who votes “Present” should get a primary challenge.
Our Republican Congresscritters have to know that the only way to prove they are worthy of re-election is to vote “Nay” on any and all tax increases. Any other vote put’s them in the “To Be Primaried” pile.
Haiku Guy has it right.
If they vote “Present”
I will vote “Democrat”
