Concern In The Ranks

May 25, 2006 | 5:03 PM |

Not all in the House GOP Conference are happy about their Speaker's effort to flex co-equal congressional muscle.

At an afternoon meeting of the Conference where Hastert outlined Pres Bush's stopgap intervention, we hear from a House source that multiple members stood up to say, in essence, "we are on the wrong side of this issue."

The feeling is that the public will miss the weighty Constitutional questions at stake and only see DC politicians defending their own. [JONATHAN MARTIN]
