On Wednesday’s CBS "Early Show," co-host Harry Smith discussed the ‘Potomac Primaries’ with Democratic Strategist Dee Dee Meyers and Republican CBS Political Analyst Nicole Wallace, who said of John McCain’s conservative critics: "The more that we see kind of the crazies like Ann Coulter out attacking John McCain, the better Republicans feel about their chances in the general election."

The MSM is clueless about the conservative movement and Republicans in general.

No matter how you feel about Coulter, it's obvious that no Republican is basing their support of McCain on Coulter's dislike of him.

This "conservative crazy" will NEVER vote for the MSM's GOP candidate.

Nothing unusual here. The guy on CNN also referred to conservatives as nuts, essentially. We are always being labeled as “far right.” That has always irked me since it insinuates we are dangerous somehow.

Harry Smith, Democratic Strategist Dee Dee Meyers, and CBS Political Analyst Nicole Wallace are liberal socialists.

Don’t agree with the analysis that she is helping, but Coulter is a crazie.

Yeah, sure. I bet they won't be saying that as the election rolls around in November.

Ummmm, it seems these “crazies” are simply mavericking McCain.

You know, slamming their Party and their President, err, the “nominee”, in public during election time.

Seems these crazies have learned from the great original “maverick”, John McCain himself.

According to the wackjob media, patriotic Americans, that love their country and our troops, are the crazies. Meanwhile, according to the wackjob media, they consider the sane ones to be Islamic terrorists, Code Pink, moveon.org, Hezzbolah, and the traitors in Congress like Reid and Pelosi. Give me a break!

Not only are they clueless, the MSM is the enemy. What is good for Conservatives is bad for them.

McCain is the enemy of their enemy right now. When they are done using him and his followers, they will dispatch him with no compuction. Enjoy your new friends John!

Ann Coulter does no favors to Conservatives when she acts like that either....

In truth I only listen to and take seriously what Newt Gingrich says... The rest of the talking heads are out to lunch...

As far as the entertainers like Rush and Hannity, Laura Ingraham et.al... I really think they owe conservatives an appology because they failed to rally the base around a suitable candidate early enough..

They should have saw the dangers of McCain early on and warned often so that the base would have coalaced around Fred Thompson... or Duncan Hunter ... early on with enthusiasm... an energized base would have brought in the moderates.

Instead the talking heads all Johnny come lately with Romney and that just didn’t do it....

If you think this is bad, wait until the Republican party levels their twelve guage filled with rock salt at conservatives for not supporting McCain. You haven’t seen anything yet.

McCain and the Republican party will do their damndest to marginalize true conservatives before this is over.

And if he wins... it isn’t going to be a pretty four years for conservatives and their credibility.

McCain, the RP, the media, the Democrats, get ready folks...

Well, guess what? This crazie’s vote counts as much as any “sane” Republican’s vote, and it goes AGAINST McNutCase.

HA HA

I used to work with Nicole. She's extremely liberal and as dumb as a box of rocks. She got where she was by shaking her rear up the ladder.

Not surprising, not surprising at all.

Oh I wish I could tell the stories I have about her.

Political Analyst Nicole Wallace, who said of John McCain’s conservative critics: "The more that we see kind of the crazies like Ann Coulter out attacking John McCain, the better Republicans feel about their chances in the general election."

This is why the RNC has lost touch with its' constituents.

MSM Agenda for the Past Nine Years:

Push McCain for Republican Nominee as a “Maverick”; Divide the Republican Party

Crush Conservative candidates; Secure the Nomination for McCain with help from Mindless Middle

Abandon McCain after he is nominated; Brainwash Mindless Middle who secured nomination for McCain into voting for the Democrat in the General Election

Declare Conservatives “Irrelevant, Ineffective and Out of the Mainstream”; Work to Widen the Gap between McCain and conservatives

Crush Conservative Movement; Elect Democrat as President. Liberal Socialism is Bliss

____

We fell for it.
