Bill Owens is the latest example.
The New York Times is reporting that in his pep talk to the Democrats in Congress this morning, President Obama acknowledged that he and newly elected NY-23 Democratic Congressman Bill Owens have pulled a fast one on the voters in that district.
The Times reported the President's comments about Bill Owens today in the context of the overall pending Health Care bill vote:
The president also singled out Representative Bill Owens, the newly-elected Democrat from a historically Republican district in New York, who was sworn into office just on Friday. Mr. Obama noted that Mr. Owens would support the health care bill even though it might not be popular at home.
I'd bet that at least some of the people who voted for Owens don't want Obamacare. But hey, Democrats don't believe in allowing people to make their own decisions.
