Coburn is sour grapes.
Newt undoubtedly told the firebrand nuc em all congressman coburn to simmer down. The fact that newt didn’t conform to coburn’s precise bomb delivery plan is now said to be a lack of leadership.
Newt was in the wrong. Coburn was in the right. Past history demonstrates which one had the better understanding of what is wrong in Washington.
Coburn’s still holding a grudge against Newt for his infildelity....Coburns known to be a “no” type of guy because of his strict adherences to his Christian “principles”. He’s not ready to forgive Newt and it really bothers Coburn that Newt was unfaithful. I suspect in time he will but it appears that’s still festering in Coburn.
