| I think any time they go non-partisan...those who are partisan are going to hold it against the politician. Let us not forget things like McCain-Feingold and the backlash from that from conservatives. Bill Clinton crossed the isle with welfare reform at the reluctance to many democrats. It happens to all of them. | ||||
