It has everything to do with political class. If the right wing of the political elite disagreed, they'd be screaming.
Naw....seems they glean their POVs (and hopefully their spines) after a couple of days sticking fingers in the air...reading columns, listening to Rush, etc..
And yeah...don't laugh, Rush has tens of millions of loyal listeners daily. Even the MSM hangs on his every word.
The backlash is coming....in fact, they've already nixed the idea....for now.
