New Washington insider wisdom: If you have the courage of your convictions and support those who do likewise, then you’re not to be taken seriously.

At an event at the Ronald Reagan Building hosted by Roll Call/CQ in Washington, D.C. on Nov. 4, Roll Call Executive Editor Mort Kondracke, also a Fox News contributor took a few shots at the political leadership of Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

>>> He has never seemed very conservative to me.

That’s because he is not. Mort was center left but still reasonably moderate.

During the Bush term, he gradually became unhinged.

"The same applies to Sarah Palin, I think. I think she – I think she is a phenomenon. I think she’s a rock star. I think she attracts cameras wherever she goes. But she’s a joke, you know? Even within her own party, the idea that she would be the presidential nominee among vast majorities of ordinary Republicans is just unthinkable.”

Think again, Mort. That is, if you're capable of thinking outside the Beltway.

Dayum, what a clueless idiot.

He remarried so you don’t have to accept anything that he says.

IIRC, during the immigration, um, amnesty debate, he did nothing but push the Bush-Rove line, along with his side-kick.

I stopped tuning in the for last 15-20 minutes of Brit Hume’s show att.

I rarely tune in now for that time period.

Mort may as well hold up a sign that says: ‘Pay attention to me..I really do matter.’ Sad truth is, Mort, you don’t. No one cared what you thought about Sarah before..even less so now.

“Mort Kondracke”. Isn’t that a painful and potentially embarassing disease affecting the lower digestive system?

Didn't I hear that 18 out of her 20 picks won ?

That is not a joke.

Mort has been listening to the fat, bald school
yard bully who is a Misoginist

Kondracke is the megaphone for Trent Lott, Karl Rove, Lindsey Graham and John McCain wing of the establishment RINO country club GOP. They are what is wrong with the GOP. They are not about to go down without a vicious fight.

John McCain fought harder against a conservative candidate than he did against Obama — the person McCain said was a swell guy.

She has more conservative attributes than 99% of her
detractors...Kondracke has lost his way...keeps leaning
more to his left...maybe Fred Barnes should talk to him about being a true conservative. JK

When I hear a remark like this from one of the Washington, Blovators, I check to see what the blabbermouth has done. Sarah enjoys wide respect, and adulation because she has had a successful career as as Governor, wife, business owner, fisherwoman, and great person just to mention a few of her attributes. Mort, well he has hung out in Washington for a long time.Out side of that not much. It is easy to sit in Washington and throw stones at successful people, but it requires quite a different person to walk the walk.

Mort was (is?) McLaughlin’s pseudo-conservative on his snoozer of a show on PBS. Like NPR PBS has strange ideas of what constitutes a conservative.
