Close. I wasn't claiming that it was principled. I was claiming that it's what they stumped on in course to their leadership positions. Reversing themselves on those positions violates the narrative that they've been crafting, which probably has negative political consequences.

It wasn't against the idea of improving infrastructure. It was against who was improving infrastructure. If Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice do something, that's OK. If Hillary does the same thing, it's treasonous. Got it?
