I disagree. It's long past time for top Republicans to stop quietly sitting still and taking the kind of leftist abuse Moore dishes out. Fred not only called Moore on his Marxist BS, he put Mikey in his place. Wish more GOP presidential candidates would show half as much backbone.

Do you remember when Clinton criticized Rush Limbaugh? All it did was draw attention to Rush. Let us attack Moore. Fred needs to be Presidential, and attacking Moore doesn’t make him appear so. Surely he’s got better things to do. And that leads me to ask whether he’s going to run. I’m beginning to doubt it.

Maybe he’s just angling for the VP spot. Whoever wins in this Rino field is going to need a VP with solid conservative credentials. Fred is about as good as they are going to get.
