I can’t say I’m terribly surprised. I always felt bad when I called Dewine’s office and the exasperated staff had to explain why Dewine hadn’t taken a position on this or that issue.

My favorite line to pull on them was this: Well, they’d say, Senator Dewine hasn’t taken a position on that issue becasue it’s not up for a vote. If it comes up for a vote, he’ll study it and take a position.

Then I’d ask if he was pro-life. Yes, of course, they’d say. Well, I’d say, that hasn’t come up for a vote!

I do feel badly for the staffers who are looking for work. This is a great move by Pelosi.
