Wrong....they should be criticized when they screw up, act stupid and show their RINO behinds, but in private or in forums like FR...not openly in newspaper and on television where every stupid liberal Democrat and lame-brain member of the media can go "see Republicans are divided and don't support _____ (fill in the blank)!
Republicans and conservatives bashing each other will get reported everytime! When is the last time you read or saw a Democrat or liberal bashing each other. It may have happened....heck if there can be a white Christmas in Galveston, anything can happen....
My point is Republicans and conservatives face an enemy called the Mainstream Media. They will use any comment, any action or any non-action to bash us! Some jerk or jerkett at the New York Times is probably already writing a column about how unfit Roberts is for the Supreme Court. In addition to their usual pack of lies, no doubt they will say "even conservative pundit Ann Coulter doesn't care for Roberts."
Don't be silly.
The libs are not about be lining up behind Ann!
To the contrary.
You dangerously assume that FR is not perused by DU types and the NYT reporters. Run a Google and you'll get FR posts on the names.
Having said that, I'm still not convinced. Your advocacy of tact is admirable, and I generally utilize it--but there are many occasions on which I've called a spade a f*(&^% shovel, loudly, in mixed company.
They get what they earn.
Coulter's column makes the point, historically accurate, that conservatives have NEVER been pleased, long-run, with a 'stealth candidate.' I hope she's wrong this time.
