Matt Drudge, the online news aggregator whose eponymous website is a favorite among conservatives, appeared disenchanted with the Republican Party on Tuesday.
In a pair of tweets, Drudge expressed his opposition to U.S. military action in Syria while arguing that the GOP has failed to give voters a compelling reason to support its candidates.
