This is true, unfortunately...my two senators - Chamblis and Isakson are probably the biggest back-sliding RINOs around. Both of the are just itching to appease Democrats to maintain their power while simultaneously shopping Radio commentators to spout their lying spew.
When Juan McC, Bush et al tried to sneak the Illegal Alien Amnesty by us, my two Senators were right there with them....the result? They bitch-slapped so hard by voter anger and calls, they relented and changed their tunes....THEY DID NOT CHANGE THEIR HEARS, however.
I will NEVER for for EITHER one again - E_V_E friggin’ EVER again!
He's as likely to join the Democrats as [insert name of most conservative Republican you can think of here].
Chambliss has 100% 2010, 80% 2011, and 92.50 lifetime.
Isakson has 91% 2010, 75% 2011, and 88.15% lifetime.
I don't know just exactly what the numbers mean, but there are Republicans out there who are a lot more liberal.
There are some things hardly any Senator is going to vote for or against. And no politician is going to the first to take the risk.
Condemning politicians for not sawing off the limb beneath them may be being a little too purist.
