My belief is this would be even more of a problem for the Rats if it were happening exactly one year from now. I think this is a good idea, I hope the Rats fall for it.

No, no, no. Things like that NEVER break in favor of the Republicans. ALWAYS in favor of the Democrats.

If the RINO’s are supporting it, we probably shouldn’t

Not true. In 2002, Bush needed the Rats in the House to vote for authorization to go after Iraq. The vote was scheduled right before the election and they were forced to go along because of it. It doesn’t “always” go their way, just usually.

If the Pubblies spend the intervening year making it clear this is the Rats’ tar-baby (as they have since this turkey passed), it will break their way. This goes around the media megaphone.
