The difference is that most folks on the left are intelligent and informed enough to know or to find out that President Obama enlisted Al Sharpton and Newt Gingrich to help with the President's education initiatives. Sharpton himself has been talking about this in the past couple of days in order to call Gingrich out on his hypocrisy. Folks on the left won't likely have a kneejerk, visceral reaction to seeing the President and Rev. Al working with someone on the other side of the political spectrum, especially in order to advance their objectives.

On the other hand, folks on the right are likely to not take too kindly to seeing their esteemed Newt anywhere near Rev. Al or the President, regardless the circumstances of their collaboration.
