More than hurt feelings. If someone stabs you in the back, you don’t kiss and make up. The GOPe is as evil as the Dems. Tea Party is supposed to play fair, but GOPe doesn’t have too? Homey don’t play that game no more.
Exactly. It’s an deliberate insult to characterise this as mere petulance, after he betrayed the conservative movement using dirty gutter tactics against a conservative, pandering to the left, to win at any cost.
