As Captain Ed explains, the pork keeps flowing, although the Democrats, primarily Reid and Pelosi, promised change. He concludes…
If the GOP had any sense, they would take this opportunity to declare an immediate and unilateral moratorium on pork and defy the Democrats to match them. They have an opportunity to take action on reform instead of just talking incessantly about it. Republicans will not win a majority in either chamber unless they demonstrate real leadership on real reform and demonstrate a clear difference between themselves and the Democrats on spending.
I disagree. There’s not enough time between now and November for the GOP to impress on undecided folks that they have changed their ways. In fact, they couldn’t convince me between now and November. A pox on both their houses. It’s disgusting and you can smell corruption everywhere.
