Why can't those Republicans just get along?

By Richard K. Barry

You may have noticed that there is an awful lot of sniping going on in the GOP these days. Maybe it was just more obvious last week coming out of the CPAC convention, which prompted the radical right and so-called establishment Republicans to say unpleasant things about each other at a furious clip.

Now we hear that former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele has called current RNC Chairman Reince Preibus 'numb nuts.' Really. He called him 'numb nuts.'

 And then someone decided it would be a good idea to ask Steele which of the two would prevail in a cage fight. Steele, without the sense to leave the query alone, said, "Oh, no question, I would clean his clock. Just one knock on the head. It's done."

 Someone needs a time out. In fact, I think an entire political party might need one.
