The best tack for all politicians is to hold their fire till the general election. There is too much to lose if the guy you didn’t back wins anyway. Plenty of time to weigh in after the primaries.
I just watched tweedle dee and tweedle dumb on FNS with Metro-boy Chris Wallace the DBM infiltrator on FNC.
During a minor ream out session of DNC chair Tim Kaine about dingy's racial slurs to at the Joker the inevitable comparison to Trent Lott was brought up.
Problem is the comparisons are striking.
Trent Lott was old school thinking he could give an honest apology and then move on, not realizing there is an entirely new gotcha mentality in congress/dc now.
Reid realizes that only warriors survive in today's political environment(stupid doesn't thats why he will be gone) so he made a brief apology and than offered nothing more. He also got the standard DBM pass.
Trent Lott as a true Southern gentleman that he was/is couldn't apologize enough and when the dc sharks/terrorists sensed blood in the water as they say the rest is history.
Modern dems reach out to anyone struggling on our side and do their best to sink in the harpoon for the kill,anyone who has not learned that yet should.
And then when its their turn to screw up they turn to the DBM for a pass and always get it.
If the dems are to be shot out of the water it's our job to get it done.
