Democrats Divided Over Tax Increases, Job-Killing Energy Policies!
The Democratic Party is divided, with some Democrats beginning to question the wisdom of the job-killing energy policies and tax hikes proposed by the president and Democratic leadership. Senate Republicans are committed to protecting our economy from the dangers of "cap-and-tax" policies and opposing Democrats' attempts to raise taxes on American families and small businesses.

Mass. Legislature approves plan to bypass Electoral College!
The Constitution is under attack from the "left" once again!
The Massachusetts Legislature has approved a new law intended to bypass the Electoral College system and ensure that the winner of the presidential election is determined by the national popular vote.
Supporters are campaigning, state by state, to get such bills enacted. Once states accounting for a majority of the electoral votes (or 270 of 538) have enacted the laws, the candidate winning the most votes nationally would be assured a majority of Electoral College votes. That would hold true no matter how the other states vote and how their electoral votes are distributed.
Illinois, New Jersey, Hawaii, Maryland, and Washington have already approved the legislation, according to the National Popular Vote campaign's website. The new system would only go into effect once a sufficient number of states have passed laws that would make it work.
