Senator Cynthia Snowe (RINO, Maine) has apparently started taking more conservative positions in the Senate this year, fearful of a pending tea-party challenger. A few thoughts:
1) This is proof positive that she just wants to keep being a Senator and is not acting on principle;
2) "More conservative" positions relative to Cynthia Snowe include such things as not actively promoting abortions for married couples that don't want one; calling Communism "probably a bad idea"; and fondling the current President;
3) I love that she killed her own bill based upon "long-standing principles";
4) She killed the bill because she wasn't going to be able to vote on an amendment she had added to it...was she going to vote "no"?; and
5) Snowe was not a centrist, she was left of center (hence the numerous dissapointed Democrats in the story.
In the end, if you're Ms. Snowe, you were never what you claimed to be and you aren't what you're pretending to be now. If you lose in 2012, good riddance.
