High-ranking republicans, doesn't matter who, should be out in

[monmouth]

front of every camera they can find today trashing trump and the birthers. They should be bashing their words and conduct and state this is not an American ethic. Of course they would be doing this with their fingers crossed behind their collective backs, but still. Wouldn't you think they realize how the last few days have impacted them? Are they not listening to the media and feeling the backlash? I realize I'm being naive here but if anyone in their ranks had any clue about PR, this would have been a "must do" about 48 hours ago. GO DEMS!!

5. I truly wonder if they have to wait for word from on high before they

can say anything? McConnell? Boner? It's a puzzler.

3. They take their cues from the beltway media specifically fox news

And until they have received a signal from fox (and probably beached whale limbaugh) that it's o-tay to trash trump and the birfers you won't hear a peep out of them.

They are scared shitless of their lunatic fringe.

4. PR? Republicans don't do PR.

They just do whatever the fuck they want to do, and you can kiss off if you don't like it.

6. IMO, the "high ranking republicans" are Palin, Bachmann, Gingrich, Huckabee,

Trump, Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Trump and they all seem to go along with the birther crap.
