Ed Morrissey at Captain’s Quarters respects William F. Buckley’s endorsement of Mitt Romney. I don’t.
However, Ed goes on to say he’s not terribly convinced this will mean a lot to the average voter. I do agree with that.
The problem I have with Buckley is he picks and chooses which Republicans he thinks are good enough Republicans based on his criteria. It’s not a conservative thing, it’s a Buckley thing. From my experience, he decides he doesn’t like someone, THEN applies the appropriate conservative transgressions to validate his pre-jury guilt. As such, I grew tired of Buckley’s crap a long time ago. I’m gonna guess I’m not the only REPUBLICAN who feels that way.
The Romney camp has every reason to celebrate Buckley’s endorsement. I’d rather have Oprah’s.
