I don't know about you, but I like people who are straightforward and honest. Playing word games like, "I support someone, but I don't endorse them" is mealy mouthed and chicken shit. They are playing both sides of the game and that doesn't seem honest to me. I would have preferred that they say nothing at all. Their wishy washy position is a reflection of their strength of character, or the lack thereof, and that does affect their representation of Alaskans. We elected them, they are wishy washy, therefore, we appear wishy washy and of weak character. Differentiate between opinion and fact - this is just my opinion. Thank the Lord for the first amendment!
