I think the article -is of the opinion- that the GOP are silent on issues while Bachmann,Palin,King, and some others speak out.
If the GOP want to McCain again in MODERACY and political correctness they can go play elsewhere and lose.
Oh the GOP is SILENT now. The impression I got from the title of the article was that GOP leaders were attempting to MUZZLE individuals such as Glenn Beck and Michele Bachmann.
I watch Glenn Beck’s program almost every night. Knowing him, if someone was trying to silence his voice, he would have something to say about that!
