Handmaiden for the Grand Old Boys - Did She Just Forget About Obama's Crummy Speech?

When PBS and NY Times Token "Republican", David Brooks, MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell and Diamond  Earring Studs, Montel Williams give highest praises to the "Republican Response" to Obama's State of the Union spew, then we know how deeply out-of-touch the Country Club GOP Boys really are.

It wasn't until Trump held his lead in the Republican Presidential Race that I fully realized, in retrospect, how contemptuous the Old Boy GOPers were of Ronald Reagan. m/r

Nikki Haley Strikes Out | The American Spectator

The Establishment's handmaiden was the real story Tuesday night.

By Jeffrey Lord – 1.14.16

Wow. A South Carolinian Margaret Thatcher she ain’t. Not to mention no Ronald Reagan in a dress.

Such a softball shot was the GOP response to the last Obama State of the Union and it was blown. Big time. What in the world was South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley thinking?

Tasked with giving the GOP Establishment response to President Obama’s final SOTU, Haley, once thought to be a rising star in the conservative firmament, imploded. How? By uttering the kind of hoary Establishment “wisdom” that repeatedly illustrates just how disconnected the Establishment elites are from the base of the GOP. As Sean Hannity said yesterday, she indeed did “sound like Obama.” Rush Limbaugh had it right — the real story Tuesday night was not Obama but Haley. Said Rush yesterday, in part:

Nikki Haley is actually the story today, in a whole bunch of different ways. There's so much here to say about the Nikki Haley response. It's the first time in my life I can remember the response to the State of the Union not going after the president but rather going off the front-runner of, in this case, her own party. I don't think I've ever seen that before. And it is quite telling to note where in the Drive-By Media and in the conservative media today she's being hailed.
