Normally, that is not anything but an excuse. I agree. However, when you can be voted down by 75-25, a lot of stuff is coming out of your legislature that, even if you vetoed it, it would be overridden.

Then you override it xzins, you don't pretend that you were against it and sign the bill. At least that is what a man of principle would do.

It would depend on (1) the issue involved, and (2) if not a core principle, then what I could trade for that’s valuable to me prior to the vote, if anything.
