Orr and the NCGOP ad

Crossposted from Dome:

The inability to recognize subtle intellectual arguments is a growing weakness among many conservatives.

As evidenced by the majority of posts on this thread, many of you would be content to wall off the GOP into a corner from which we would never escape.

Bob Orr's point is that this is the Democratic primary, why should we spend GOP money now undermining the Democrats?

*"We do not need to spend limited media dollars on some tenuous link between the two Democratic candidates for governor and Reverend Wright."*

Even Newt Gingrich has pointed out that conservatives lose when they continually shout "NO" from the top of their lungs with no real substance backing up their arguments.

I am all for pointing out the weaknesses of Democratic candidates for office, but the GOP is better served if we have substantive policy goals backing up our position on the moral high ground.

Jeff:

Nice post! With all of the problems with the Democratic control of this state, it's just astonishing that the Republican party would seize on this.

Once again girding my opinion that Orr is the smartest of the GOP candidates for governor.
