A Healthy Veto

Legislative Republicans seem bound and determined to reelect Governor Perdue.
 
By placating their base on Obamacare and giving her another easy veto, they enabled her to effortlessly shore up her base. That’s her most pressing political need right now.
 
Soon, you’ll probably see her poll numbers rising. Which will help her start-up fundraising. And discourage any primary challengers.
 
Once again, the Republican leaders – Berger and Tillis – made the mistake of talking politics about her veto: “Obama, Pelosi, Washington,” yadda, yadda, yadda.
 
Once again, they’re repeating Obama’s fundamental political error: focusing on anything other than jobs and economic recovery.
