The Senate defeated Rep. Longhurst's 'Fuck the Doomed' bill yesterday. 9 Y, 10 N, 2 Hiding in the Restroom. My guess is that the votes are there. Especially once Delmarva breaks out its/their checkbooks. Perhaps in the rest room. Legislators have been known to stake out 'wide stances' on issues like this, and don't object to manipulation. Joe Farley, Delmarva's 'Democratic' lobbyist, will be working OT to earn his blood money today. BTW, is this really the kind of bill that a supposed member of the House Democratic Caucus leadership team should be sponsoring? Betcha it passes. Hope it doesn't. Memo to Longhurst primary opponent James Burton: Make this a campaign issue. I'll even toss off the 'money' sentence for you..."What sort of Democrat would sponsor the terminating of life-saving utilities to seriously-ill patients?" You're welcome.
