Elected officials know they can't escape their records.  Some folks, like Michele Reagan, divert attention from their record of performance with campaign rhetoric.  When you don't know if you can believe what they say, take a look at what they have done.  Don't consider just one or two votes, but enough to form a pattern.  Just a reminder:  Democrats vote in virtual lockstep to nationalize education, destroy the family unit, destroy the unborn, destroy jobs, destroy the free market, destroy state sovereignty, and destroy our economy.  The problem is that Michele Reagan is one of those Republicans who, too often, votes with them.
