Six Senate Republican co-sponsors of the bipartisan Deficit Reduction Commission bill voted against it after President Obama endorsed the effort.
They didn't want to give President Obama a victory.
Potential political gains swamped what's good for the country.
Six Senate Republicans voted against what they believed in and initially sponsored because the opposing party said it was a good idea and supported it. Do you believe it?
So much for bipartisanship!
Why try to work with people who use your openness to delay, distract, derail and destroy what you are trying to achieve and what's good for the country?
This GOP maneuver ought to signal an end to all bipartisan entreaties until Republicans show they deal with such offers honestly.
