Not Weird - Just Cold

Larry Keeling asks this question on his blog:

“Why any Democrat would want to get in the middle of the Fletcher-Pence break-up is strange enough. Why any Democrat would want to get into it on Fletcher's side is, as I said, weird - with a capital W.”

Here’s the answer:

If you are a Democrat you want Fletcher hurt, but not killed. It’s is better for all Democrats to watch Fletcher and Northup beat up on each other than have a clear Republican winner.

It’s really a military answer, it’s easier to trap an enemy slowed down with casualties than one that has freedom of movement.

You see Republicans really aren’t as cold hearted as some Democrats believe.

If they were, they would have slit Fletcher’s political throat a long time ago and left him bleeding in the dust and moved on.
