Or perhaps, based on the info they got from their legislative affairs people, they did the smart thing, despite what their members wanted. Are they leaders or mouthpieces?
Just as an aside, it seems that a lot of the trouble in this country over the last couple decades has been brought on through leadership by opinion poll, instead of by smart, informed, ethical decsion making. Hmmm. A parallel perhaps? Nawww, couldn't be.
