For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Senate GOP must follow House brethren and vote unanimously against stimulus package.
Although the Obama-loving press cheered the House vote Wednesday night approving the new president’s economic stimulus package, the end result was a resounding defeat for a man who promised on the campaign trail to bring a new era of bipartisanship to Washington. There’s no getting around it, not ONE Republican representative said “Aye.”...[I]f they seriously want to win back either chamber of Congress in 2010, and/or the White House in 2012, Republicans in the Senate must follow suit by casting 41 opposing votes next week when this issue moves to their side of the Capitol.
Do you agree?
