Titus and Health Care Rock and Hard Place
On health care, she’s darned if she does and darned if she doesn’t (yes, I went with the G-rated version for here — see my Twitter feed if you want the PG hashtag):
The outcome will depend on lawmakers like Rep. Dina Titus, D-Nev., a first-term congresswoman in a divided district who overcame initial qualms to vote for the legislation in November, only to come under attack from Republicans over the decision. Titus said Thursday she’s undecided.
“I think what’s happened in my district is, there’s a great deal of uncertainty,” Titus said. “Some people still think there’s death panels.”
Titus said she’s trying to make the decision based on what’s best for her district, leaving political considerations aside, but lawmakers who switch from voting “yes” to “no” — or vice versa — risk being labeled flip-floppers.
Ain’t politics grand, Dina?
