I don’t put Lugar in the same camp with Specter, Weicker, Snowe, Collins and Warner.
BUT, in an election when you are accused of being out of touch and too attached to the office, it is a BAD IDEA to respond to a question about supporting Mourdock after the primary he should win with the snotty. “We are going to win and we will welcome Mourdock’s support.” How very unsporting and childish.
If these guys were NFL football teams, that quotation would go on the wall of the opponent’s locker room to energize them.
That's exactly how everyone should have answered when asked if they'd support Mitt Romney if he won the primary.
