Nope.
If you put on your magic spectacles, you can see the invisible words < vote for Mitt > < vote for Mitt > between each paragraph.
Frum and his brethren think the American people are stupid (they're not ALWAYS wrong), and that their boy Mitt can kill off Sarah using surrogates while staying clean himself.
Who knows, it might work - but probably not. We're onto him, and we have ways of communicating besides using Kathleen Parker, Peggy Noonan, (yes, and you too, Hugh Hewitt) and David Frum.
But, honestly, what's the Mittster supposed to do? If he attacks Sarah openly, he pisses away what little chance he has. If he lets the status quo continue to play out, there won't BE a contest for the nomination.
So, he's chosen the route of the weasel.
“Huckabee’s words are more than an observation. They are a warning. And they are a warning especially to be heeded because they come from the one politician who can probably do most to stop Palin, the candidate best positioned to win Iowa.”
The article praised Huckabee and attacked Sarah Palin. It then said that Huckabee is the only candidate who can save the Republicans from Sarah Palin. This article was obviously inspired by Republicans who only care about defeating Sarah and not about the American people. While you would need very strong “magic spectacles” to see Romney sponsoring this article, I believe he is capable of this.
If Huckabee and his people are not responsible for this article he should say publicly that he disagrees with it and the characterization of Sarah Palin.
I am sick of the Republican elite sponsoring articles that anonymously attack Sarah Palin when they don't have the courage to say the same things to her face.
