We don’t do endorsements in this space. To update Douglas MacArthur, we try and focus on conservatism — The Cause, and The Cause and The Cause.

So it is somewhat amusing to see the Washington Post’s Officially Liberal-Approved Conservative Jennifer Rubin’s constant contortions to package all things Nelson Rockefeller — er — Mitt Romney as the latest in conservative fashion. Mr. Rocke—sorry… Romney may well be the GOP nominee, and if so we wish him well in ending the Obama-era. 

But to pretend that Rubin’s continual swipes at others (Newt Gingrich, Herman Cain, Rick Perry) are anything other than her inability to control a serious case of Establishment-media approved Romneyphilia is not something that will be allowed by her readers.

Take a look at the comments following her latest rip on Mr. Gingrich.

Ouch.
