You are a good egg, I swear. If I ever run for anything, I’d want you for my press secretary.
But you have to admit, that this was NOT COOL.
Now picture how Couric, Gibson, Matthews, and all the usual suspects went after Palin over seemingly nothing. I want you to picture what they would do with Gov. Sanford over THIS!
Then tell me we can blame the MSM because he isn’t “viable.”
I’m afraid the man, by his own hand, tossed his political future out the window.
I’ve seen nothing but conflicting stories from the moment this came out. I know both he and Palin are the biggest targets for 2012 by the media, and frankly, they will just drag up or make up anything to derail them, and too many of us will simply BELIEVE what they write. We cannot and should not pass judgment here until we know exactly what happened. From my own gut, the first time I saw this, it appeared to be a non-story. The media loves to see the GOP cannibalize itself, it’s just so easy to do it.
I’ll add I don’t serve as an apologist for our pols, if our guys screw up for real, I go after them. There’s only a rare amount of GOP leaders I have any respect for for standing on principle and doing what’s right, and that’s Sanford.
