They approved one stimulus package, I don't see why they couldn't do a second. I'm not a big fan of "I'm sorry we screwed up the economy" checks from the government, but they're feasable and more honest than this gas tax stuff, which supposes that Clinton can take on the oil lobbyists, OPEC price gouging, local gas station gouging, commodities trading law, an unreceptive congress, AND a president who will never sign it.
We have proof that a stimulus package will pass. I guarantee you that Clinton's plan will never, ever pass muster before summer hits.
And that's what makes it the worst kind of pandering.
She hasn't made her case to her colleagues. The very fact that she's making an issue of this is giving Republicans talking points for the fall... "Senator X voted against his own party's plan to lower your gas prices..."
Clinton seems to care nothing for the future of the pary.
And when is she going to the floor to fight for it?
