I agree. Politics is a nasty business. I bet there's not one candidate that hasn't flipped on something. The higher up the ladder you climb the more you have to loose. With all the speeches they give, the bills with pork, etc... mistakes will happen. Also, lots of time when it looks like someone has flip flopped on a bill you need to check exactly what the bill was and what other stuff was attached to it. What looks like flip flopping might not be when you look at all the variables. Things are taken out of context ALL THE TIME in politics.
