When a
politician runs for office on the premise that he has
principles and will defend a
particular position, but abandons those principles during his first term, the people who voted for him have been "Toomeyed".
The Jr. Senator from PA ran in 2010 as a staunch defender of the
2nd amendment, assumed office in 2011, and in 2013 Toomeyed the voters by joining with with
the likes of Chuck Schumer and
Dianne Feinstein in a "Yes" vote for cloture on S 649.
