re: #37 Walter L. Newton

The phrase “neither man holds an elected office…” well, when does it get to the point that ONLY elected officials have the right to state an opinion?

I don’t read Cornyn’s statement as suggesting that Limbaugh and Newt don’t have a right to their opinion. Rather, he’s suggesting they don’t “speak for” the GOP, as they are not elected officials.
