Don't Backpedal!

Pat Robertson has committed a political faux-pas. (I'm not referring to his recent comments about assasination. I'm referring to his recent backpedal and apology.)

Here's the backpedal 4-Step

1. You take a tough principled stand (this offends liberals).

2. Liberals attack.

3. You apologize (thus, offending conservatives.)

4. Liberals still hate you. Conservatives think you're a wimp.
