The Evolution of Jim Himes on Bush Tax Cuts
DIAGNOSIS: Election Year Politics Syndrome.
It states that Jim Himes has recently altered his position on the Bush-era tax cuts, switching his views to win voter favor in the buildup to an election. Apparently Himes was against any tax-cut extension in late August and then radically amended his views within four weeks.
"It's clear he's had an election day conversion on this," Debicella said. "This is a political decision for him, not one that is based on conviction."
Problem is, that just isn't true.
Anyone with the inclination and access to Google can easily see that Jim Himes has held his views on the tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 for quite some time. Along with seven other House colleagues he wrote to President Obama to advocate extending the tax cuts of 2001 and 2003. The date of the letter? January 26th.

Seems Debicella has had a panic at the thought of his opponent's views being popular. We know he likes to push himself forward, but a congressional campaign is neither the time nor the place for a petulant temper tantrum. And seriously, did he not think anyone would check?
Once again, Debicella proves he cares nothing for the issues and will say anything in search of power. He doesn't know or care if what he says is true, and he assumes that the voters will believe his distortions. Debicella believes he can act outside the truth without repercussions.
