carolina. basically, that s coming home to roost now. those things, when they do govern, they re showing and same thing in kansas, by the way, with brownback. when you govern as a tea party folks, people are saying, timeout, this is not what i thought it was going to be. to go to lynn s point, it s okay to be against something. this person should be fired. but why you should be hired. and when they re getting hired in the tea party, it s disastrous with the electorate. i mean, one example of a tea party guy back in illinois when you had tea party movement congress freshman joe walsh easily defeated by tammy duckworth, the iraq war veteran, who s now in congress. he had nothing to say he did. the tea party he had played it safe, i know that. but it s different than saying, here s what i was able to do. if your goal is to shrink government, you have to still accomplish that, which is hard in washington. see this program, i fixed it. that s why i m so interested in seeing the
he was pretty much safe. he had nailed it for wisconsin and began campaigning very aggressively to get himself positioned as a presidential candidate for 2016. the trouble is that back in wisconsin he really took his eye off the ball even more in the last year or so than before. it ended up with a situation where in many months wisconsin s job growth is just a disaster. and the new numbers come out and they just don t give him the sort of boost that a governor seeking reelection is looking for. if you look back it has been blatantly awful. in kansas where governor brownback was up for reelection revenue down 45%. there is $92 million short of projections. in jersey chris christie blown an over $800 million hole in the

could be supported? there was little surprise for lafrt. although the question may have been mostly rhetorical, the consequences have been very real. that video has since gone viral and as part of a backlash against ayotte from constituents who join lafferty who support background checks. the senator who won her seat in 2010 by a 23-point margin saw her disapproval ratings jump by 11 points after her no vote. 50% of new hampshire voted, polls say ayotte s stance on the issue made them less likely to support her in a future election. proof positive that there is power in public shaming. here s my worry. that power has also been put to use to exposing to public scrutiny of lives of those left powerful. last month, senator brownback requires a drug test for sip
