I’m amazed to see such idiocy coming out of Jonah Goldberg.
Yesterday, I read in the WSJ editorial that they were prepared to spend the next months explaining what Romney “really meant” in his stupid utterances (and they clearly expect this to be a pattern) and that he was better than what he said. They’re prepared to run interference for him the way the other media ran interference for the idiot Joe Biden.
Why don’t people just look at the reality of the man, which is not very good but very liberal, and believe that he makes stupid utterances because that’s what he really thinks and the way he thinks it and no, he can’t be retrofitted.
Do you honestly think that this same "interference" would not need to be run on Gingrich's behalf if he became the nominee?
Wowzer.
No matter who we nominate, we are going to have to be out there defending him on the basis of "what he meant to say." That's just the way it is.
Why is Mitt Romney running? If you don't have core beliefs or a program, why do you run for the presidency? Power? Prestige? You were told to? You want to avenge your father? Be better than your father? Make your church mainstream? What!?
