There is power in numbers. If the Repugs in Congress band together and say that they will not honor Grover Norquist's Pledge anymore - what's poor Grover to do?
This is an opportunity for the Repugs to show that they are going to do the job they were elected to and that they intend to be true to the people that elected them and not be loyal to a despicable lobbyist.
If they do it altogether - it sends a strong message to Grover and to the American People. In doing so enmasse - they shield each other.
It's doable if they want to do it - the question is - will they?

And just before we metaphorically hold Grover under, we should ask: "who the hell died and made you ANYTHING, asshole?"

Don't give them any clues on how to fix themselves....

(19 posts)My daughter, a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat, ran for State Representative this year, and immediately after she filed her candidacy, Grover Norquist sent her a copy of the pledge to sign. She had quite a bit of fun altering it and sending it back. Why would anyone seeking office pledge allegiance to Norquist over the citizens they represent?
