The hero of the day is GOP Assembly Leader Sam Blakeslee. He wrote a memo to his Republican Caucus, "His (the Governors) decision to sign into law some of the most noxious legislative proposals brought before us this year is both disheartening and revealing.
Most of us have read in today's papers accounts of the Governor's shocking reversal of position on the issues about which we care most deeply: taxes, second amendment rights, family values, over-regulation, etc."
Looks to me like he has determined that the fight for responsible government has a Governor on the other side.
We need to be realistic. Blakeslee had to be aware his memo was going to be made public. That means he wanted to take a shot across the Guv's bow. Important to watch how the Governor reacts to his lack of support, Democrat or Republican in the Capitol. Is this another sign he is a lame duck?
