The House Republicans must vote against the ports deal to save their hides
in the upcoming election. The Senate does not. Once the elections are over, this deal and the continued outsourcing of American jobs will go on as usual. I only hope (not much hope though) that the voters are smarter than this.
I says to my wife last night that the Repubs are doing this NOT because they care about our national security, but simply because the outcry is SO SEVERE that if they DID allow the ports deal to go thru, their asses would be kicked straight outta DC after the 2006 Congressional elections. Self-preservation at work!
It's getting harder and harder for them to blow the 2006 elections. I think they're going to end up having to rely on voting fraud to lose the day for them.
