First Democrat Signs ObamaCare Repeal Pledge!

As you know, the GOP is trying to win support in the US House for a repeal of ObamaCare. Thus far, they have have managed to gather 171 signatures on a petition, all Republicans. Thus far... until yesterday, that is. Because yesterday saw the 172nd signature by Rep Gene Taylor (D-MS).

Mississippi Rep. Gene Taylor became the first Democrat to sign a petition to repeal his party’s health care overhaul legislation.

The Blue Dog Democrat, who frequently bucks his party’s leadership, signed the petition Wednesday, his office said.

Taylor underscores how unpopular the legislation is in some conservative districts held by Democrats.

This is no longer a partisan effort, as the first of those Democrats who voted against the bill has now signed onto efforts to repeal it.


My question is simple: where is Bobby Bright? Bright voted against ObamaCare, just like Taylor. Bright's constituents want him to repeal ObamaCare, just like Taylor's. So why hasn't Bobby Bright signed the petition promising to repeal ObamaCare?

It's time, Bobby. Either sign the petition or admit that you secretly support ObamCare after all.
