Couric: GOP Should Get Focus Off Rush & Palin 'Fringe, Sideshow'

If her Evening News gig doesn't work out, maybe Katie Couric will seek work as a Republican strategerist . . .

Couric dabbled in her possible new profession in her Notebook segment yesterday, offering some carefully considered advice to the GOP. According to Katie, Republicans should get the focus off Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin. They're nothing but "fringe" elements, "sideshows" that drive people out of the Republican Big Tent.

I’m sure this is EXCELLENT advice for the GOP from Katie Couric.

I KNOW she has all the best in mind for the GOP and the two party system.

Yeah, the GOP should take Couric’s advice and not go with effective leadership.

The GOP all across the country needs a backbone and guts. Conservatives need to stand up and start running for office everywhere and by that I mean TRUE conservatives not the ones that just talk a good game but the ones that actually talk the talk and walk the walk.

LOL!! When is she going to take a pay cut so CBS can hire some fact-checkers?
