Cuomo Chastises Cantor

The son of the former Democratic governor of New York and ABC morning show flack Cuomo interrogated US Representative Eric Cantor this morning about Obama's speech-not interviewed-interrogated. His hostility was palpable. The dinosaur media has scored some remarkable victories in their war on Republicans-I well recall the tremendous GOP stalwarts, Al D'Amato, Rick Santorum, and George Allen (whose wound was somewhat self-inflicted but who I would still vote for in a heartbeat) who the media helped knock down and take out. Sarah Palin and Eric Cantor are in their sights now because of their evident appeal. Bobby Jindal will join them on the target list. The Democrats stick together and rally around their own; Republicans have a tendency to cut loose their own over the least perceived transgression. But Republicans have always behaved more like a political party and less like a gang than their opponents. Let's not let these gangsters, who wish to punish initiative and throttle enterprise, win.
