Again, to be fair, one of the sources said one or two people on the county committee who are friends of hers did defend her.

Granted, they did so under a theory of "she's a nice old lady who didn't mean it that way." Which is not the same as defending racism. However it is an attempt at a defense.

Again, that in no way tars the entire party, especially given that the leadership called for her resignation. But someone did defend her.

So you can't really say that "absolutely no one" defended her.
