I am sure some participate in the use of "the tactic" for that purpose (from both parties from time to time), but I think most use it because they don't support the legislation in question.
If there is a pattern of Republicans currently using "the tactic" on legislation they would normally support I would admit that I am wrong, but that would involve discussing the legislation - we would have to start a new thread.
