Why So Defensive? "Tension Rising" in the House

March 14, 2010

From TheHill.com: “One thing is clear: Tension is rising in the House.  A skittish House Democrat lawmaker who voted no in November repeatedly declined to answer whether he is a yes or no this time around.  ‘You know where I am on this one. You know where I am on this one,’ he said.  Asked if marking him as a ‘no’ vote would be incorrect, the lawmaker paused, and then responded, ‘I haven’t seen any [legislative language] yet!’  Pressed if that meant he was ‘undecided,’ the lawmaker answered, ‘No, don’t put that down either!’”
