Then, seven more Republicans went over the cliff. When the smoke cleared, a total of 12 GOP Sellouts emerged in the Senate.<br /><br />+ + Will You Stand For This?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809277197679874020.post-78963967517015861542014-02-14T08:46:17.725-08:002014-02-14T08:46:17.725-08:00Who will be the next turncoat?Who will be the next turncoat?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
