Thom Tillis: "Toxic to the Fortunes of the NCGOP"

We'll have to agree with the conservative blog "Daily Haymaker" when it refers to Republican Speaker of the NC House as "mealy-mouthed." We were sitting in the audience that night in Boone when Mr. Tillis, more responsible for getting the absolutely horrible "marriage amendment" through the General Assembly than any other mother's son in Raleigh, deny that he even wanted to put that amendment before the people.

Look no further. That matches our definition of "mealy-mouthed."
