Republicans were voted out of office and suffered “electoral backlash” because they abandoned “restraining government spending, pro-growth policies, tax reduction, sound national defense, and maximum individual liberty”, as evidenced by Snowe’s vote for the Obama bailout.
And I’m sorry, David Brooks, David Frum, Kathleen Parker and Peggy Noonan didn’t endear themselves to Republicans when they joined the Democrats in trashing Sarah Palin during the campaign while those “Republican Moderates” (including John McCain, thank you very much) sat quietly and let it go on. I’d hardly call that principled adherence to core values.
