From my perspective, the parties involved in the failure of HB 910 to end up on Abbot's desk include, but are not limited to: Republican leadership (Strauss and Patrick), addition of non-needed amendment in both the House and Senate (with differing language and the same intent), and Republican Representatives that appear to be playing a political game of some kind by voting for a bill once and against essentially the same bill later. This situation illustrates one of the shortcomings of our political climate these days -- Principles and Politics really don't mix well and at the best of times are uneasy bedfellows.
