Go Over Grover

Finally we are reading about isolated Republican office holders who are willing to defy Grover Norquist. That is certainly hopeful.

I read somewhere recently that the current Houuse of Representatives only has 13 Republican members who have not taken "the pledge." The good news is that is up from 6 in the last Congress.

I'm still not sure it is time to celebrate, as the LA Times headline does, that "Grover Norquist, ayatollah, is losing his grip on the party."
