I don't know if Noonan is or ever was a registered Republican, if she is I'm fairly confident she hasn't been 'purged'. You see, taildragger, there is a considerable difference between posting 'I hate Peggy Noonan' on an Internet site and her Party membership being revoked.
As for Coulter, (who said she was voting "Cheney" in the CPAC straw poll), she is not endorsing Romney for President, she is merely relating that the odds right now are in his favor; that he is the early frontrunner.
Coulter is reporting a fact. If one doesn't care for this particular fact one can work to change it, or carry on like a silly teenager and attack the messenger.
Aside: Race for the 2012 nomination will get very interesting if Pence, DeMint, or both, enter in. Either would present a new dynamic to Palin's decision to run or not to run.
If a primary ballot features Palin and one or both of the aforementioned men Palin might be in for a reality check.
Thanks for putting it in perspective. Yes, I was acting like a teenager. On Noonan, at least she has been purged here if you will. She has been persona non grata for a while, i.e. her swearing with a live mic on MSLSD about Palin. Yes Palin may be in for a reality check, Pence might sell to the new center, I am not sure about DeMint. I like what Mitch Daniels has to say, but I have had freepers email me privately that he is more of a RINO than he lets on.
We still wonder with our lantern looking for one good man or women.
