“The 33 new Members of Congress coming to Washington to swell our side of the aisle are pragmatic, not dogmatic,” Hoyer is to say. “They were elected on promises of bipartisanship and fiscal discipline. They were elected, quite simply, to solve problems, not further politicize Washington.”
Does anyone wonder why, if the new members of congress were elected on the promise of giving the Republicans everything they want, people didn't just vote for Republicans in the first place? Did anyone actually campaign by saying we're going to do the same things the Republicans do but we're just not as good at it?
I sure hope Accountability Now has its sights on Steny Hoyer.
