Weren't we supposed to believe that Baker was this great moderate? I never bought it and this just proves it.
Atlas is seriously comically deranged on what it takes to be a moderate Republican. You're f^cking crazy if you don't think Baker is a moderate, and doing something that a DEMOCRATIC governor next door did doesn't strip him of that label...
He's actually to the right on this issue of several Republican governors that we would not consider moderates
It's ONE ISSUE. People have varying opinions. Overall, Baker and Rauner for that reason, are clearly moderate. Just because they're conservative on an issue or two that really bother Democrats doesn't mean they're suddenly right-wingers. Any Republican of the last, oh I don't know, 150 years would seem "tough on unions" etc.
