It’s been a pile on Paul Ryan ever since news of Romney’s VP pick was released on news dump Friday and announced publicly on the day of closing ceremonies for the Olympics. Odd timing to say the least. But the pile on, it’s both good to see and seems to have taken the GOP by surprise. It shouldn’t have, this split has been brewing for a long time: [Read more…]
That will no doubt be one of the memes trotted out to the wingnut victims, also known as the conservative base.
