GOP to rebrand Dems as ‘socialists’ – The Politico
Hot Air – Just the sort of smart, sober gesture we need to convince Americans of the party’s new seriousness of purpose.
The Moderate Voice – Demonization politics seems to trump all (even political wisdom: so someone thinks this might attract younger voters, Latinos, African Americans, moderates and independents).
Newshoggers.com – The desperate Republican Party seems incapable of re branding themselves so they are going to re brand the Democratic Party.
DISSENTING JUSTICE – The move strikes me as a stupid and futile strategy. RNC Chair Michael Steele agrees.
Riehl World View – When I first heard about this rebranding the Dems as Socialists resolution, I emailed an RNC group and said it was the dumbest waste of their time I could imagine. I haven’t changed my mind.
Poli Blog — the GOP needs to figure out how to rebrand itself and forget trying to rebrand the opposition.
Not one dime to the NRSC – Eric Erickson
Politics Daily – efforts to elect Republicans in 2010 are doing nothing to bring the sides together.
GOP 12 – ”Charlie Crist Picks A Fight Republicans Don’t Need”, is framed on logic hanging a Rubio candidacy.
RedState – Will we go with tanned, telegenic tax hikers with dubious personal issues, or young, telegenic conservative reformers who are not afraid to speak up for freedom?
Plum Line – Uh oh — the conservative backlash against the national GOP for its endorsement of moderate, stimulus-supporting Governor Charlie Crist in the GOP primary continues apace.
