I wouldn't go that far, but I will say this: Bush backed liberal Republicans Arlen Specter and Lincoln Chafee against conservative Republicans in primary races with the goal of defeating Democrats in the general elections in November. Savage is donating to Jerry Brown over conservative Republican Poochigian in a general election. Savage is not reluctantly backing a moderate with the hope of defeating a liberal, he is backing a liberal with the hope of defeating a conservative. HE WANTS A LIBERAL TO WIN. How dare he say any other interpretation is "spin!"
Granted, it's not that they're so great, it's that Jerry sucks so much more.
Well said.
