Playing rough against Senate R’s

Rather than just flapping their gums for TV against the attempt by Repub Senate leaders to allow more closed committee meetings, Senate D’s should play rough, according to editorialist Marty Trillhaase of the Idaho Falls Post Register. They should:

1. Do more than hold press conferences and vote in protest.
2. Use tape records and take copious notes in closed sessions; then, divulge the contents to the public (feel free to engage in political spin).
3. Make individual Repulicans defend themselves in front of a platoon of television cameras and microphones — something no politician relishes.

All of which are great ideas from Marty. Now, we’ll see if Idaho D’s have the cajones to pull something like this off, and mebbe win a few more votes.
