Never, ever put you faith and trust in a turncoat, betrayal is their only game.

Thanks Cincinatus' Wife.
King gave Republicans some political cover Wednesday, when he voted with them to block the high-profile pay equity bill. Democratic leaders had pressured Senate Republican centrists for days to vote with them, but ultimately, King was the only lawmaker to break ranks. Republicans said they were surprised by King’s vote... King said the legislation was poorly conceived and would hurt businesses. “I’m wholly committed to equal pay for equal work, but I just felt this bill had some provisions that would not further the goal and, in fact, would be very burdensome, particularly the provision that, in effect, requires a business to prove a negative,” he said.
