GOP praise of Ryan puts Green on the spot

Once again, Rep. Paul Ryan gets deserved praise for his willingness to stand up and be counted on Social Security, this time in a Republican Party release.

Which again raises the question: Where is Mark Green, and why is he hiding from the voters on this issue? (Earlier post, "A Tale of Two Congressmen.")

The Democratic Party has a little fun at Green's expense almost every weekend, sending out his campaign schedule to the media as a news advisory, with a headline like:

Congressman Green to Reveal Whether He Still
Supports Risky Plans to Privatize Social Security

followed by details of where and when he will be available to discuss the issue. I don't know if the media ever bite, but it's got to be an irritant to the Greenman.
