Am I Surprised?...No
Social Security Vote May Be Delayed
Critics Could Force Proposal to Change
So, a week back mingling with the masses has left many GOP lawmakers skitish on the broad outlines of President Bush's Social Security reform plan. Not really surprising if you think about it, Social Security isn't called the third rail of politics for nothing. Debate is good, the President's 'plan' (outline really) is a great point from which to start the discussion. It will all take sometime, besides, having more time will give the backers of 'reform' more time to bash the AARP.
