You can take the douchebag out of Austin, but you can’t take Austin out of the douchebag.

While participating in a panel discussion Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” President George W. Bush’s former chief strategist Matthew Dowd continued the senseless attacks on former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin by political elitists on the right .
Dowd was critiquing the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) for not inviting New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), while welcoming Palin, who he said “wasn’t competent enough to keep a Fox News contract,” according to The Raw Story.
“CPAC, to me, has totally diminished its credibility as an organization,” Dowd said. “And you invite Sarah Palin, who wasn’t competent enough to keep a Fox News contract? But she’s invited to CPAC meeting?”
Palin has been critical of the Bush family in the past. In an appearance on the Laura Ingraham radio show in November 2010, Palin referred to George H.W. and Barbara Bush as “blue bloods” who were trying to “pick and choose” the 2012 Republican presidential nominee for president....

Sounds like echoes of loyalty to a former boss. I wouldn’t worry about it.
More backstabbing from the GOP-E.
Exactly. IOW, Dowd who?
Looks like a little of one and a lot of the other to me.
Boy, you wanna see a Republican big-shot pull out all the stops and fight like he wants to win, just aim him at a conservative member of his own party.
Put him up against the worst of the Democrat party, and it’s all “my good friend” this and “let’s see what we can agree on” that.
These types are really an example of why the GOP is screwed up and loses. They aren’t even on the same team. That this guy was a part of a GOP campaign gives you insight into how screwed up the political consultant class is. Sarah Palin was out there shaping the news and the debate against Obamacare while people like Mathew Dowd were either throwing in the towel or running affirmative action interference for the President.
Here is the guy’s twitter.

As I read the situation I don’t think Dowd is exactly on speaking terms with the Bush clan. Sounds more like he maybe returning to his original roots in the Democratic Party.
You can take the douchebag out of Austin, but you can’t take Austin out of the douchebag.
Dowd’s an opportunist tool. Is another book coming out?
He’s not even GOP-E anymore, just a pundit. He even turned on GWBush who made him. I’m not the biggest GWB fan, but I’m not going to go after the folks who make my career. That’s just being a disloyal bastid.
Governor Palin is the most powerful republican in America, and she leads the right, with tea party people like Cruz and Paul and others having such a major effect in the Senate although they are freshmen and defeated establishment people, the Romney/Rove wing of the GOP must be frantic and fuming.
You can take the douchebag out of Austin, but you can’t take Austin out of the douchebag.
The fact that YOU cannot is also telling.
You can take the douchebag out of Austin, but you can’t take Austin out of the douchebag.
WOW for someone supposedly irrelevant, she sure does have a lot of power doesn’t she..I had no idea that Sarah Palin makes the guest list of who appears at CPAC and who isn’t allowed in. Poor little Bush aide, must suck to be sucking on the nuts of the Bush family, who gave us Barack Obama..they are SO jealous of Sarah Palin it shows on their face every single time they mention her name..she not only lives in libs heads 24/7 but also in the heads of these RINO douche bags
One of the gazillion Bush family/GOPe putzes out there.
Governor Palin is the most powerful republican in America? Is that a serious statement? She holds no office, and the last elected office she had she quit. She is currently doing... well, I don’t know. What IS she doing? Why exactly do you think she’s so powerful?
Typical of the misrepresentation/lying/backstabbing of the GOP-E cretin class, which has been going on for years now, both towards Palin and the Tea Party as a whole. Do I even really have to say what I personally think of them? The whole Bush/Rove wing? Schmidt, Wallace, Madden, all of them? I can guarantee that before I ever again vote for any one candidate that they determine to champion, I’d drop my drawers and urinate on the ballot.
