I'm sure it does. In those cases, a responsible Representative would vote no. If I agreed to everything that crossed by desk based on a title or a soundbite, I'd get fired.

That'd be the honorable thing to do. But since you don't know what's in the package, it's a pig in a poke, and if it's something your constituents might favor, you'll get hammered for it the next election cycle - and you can be sure the Democrats will gleefully engineer just such a thing.
