The number should be at least 50 by now if their campaign rhetoric was anything but a sick joke to deceive voters.

I agree, but:

#1. Some of them are Freshmen just arriving and it’s prolly scary to go against one of the most powerful persons in D.C.

#2. I’m sure a lot of the incumbents, returning to Congress, are “flying under the radar” right now to protect their Committee assignments and

That's exactly my point. Most, if not all, of those just arriving campaigned as constitutional conservatives. Independents and even crossover dems voted for them because their campaign rhetoric was to go to DC, get rid of the likes of Boehner, NOT compromise on the very issues Boehner sold them out on before they even got to DC.

If they can't do that one small thing...keeping their first promise....they're WORSE than Dems. Why? They've taken an HOR seat from someone who might actually have been a constitutional conservative and meant the promises that got so many elected.

My fingers are burning the keyboard, I'm so fed up. We shouldn't give these newcomers or for that matter anyone who campaigned hard for the conservative vote even a whiff of an excuse if they traitor us. I repeat, those that do are WORSE THAN DEMS. That's because that would mean they bare-*ssed lied to get conservative votes and stole an HOR seat from a true conservative.

Grrrr.....
