Interesting and candid talk from some of the Republicans about their campaign strategies. From the article:

"Facing a tough contest against Harold Ford Jr., a young, telegenic African American congressman, Corker says he watched his campaign flounder as his consultants ran television ads that tried to paint his opponent, a moderately conservative Democrat, as a 'liberal.'

" 'They were grotesque,' Corker said of his own commercials in an interview this week. 'It was just the same old stuff.' By contrast, he said, Ford's spots were 'fresh and refreshing.' "

Another couple of quotes:

"Rep. Tom Davis of Virginia, who is retiring, confessed to me that if his party 'were dog food, they'd take us off the shelf and put us in a landfill.'

"Tony Fabrizio, a Republican pollster, said party leaders have 'got their heads in the sand. They've kept on this track, they keep expecting miracles, and there are no miracles.' "

True and about time ! I used to be just another apathetic voter who paid little attention to the candidates, I just followed the party line. That changed when I listened to the "liberals" pointing out what became obvious as nothing more than lies and more lies from this current administration and their cronies.Hacking apart our Constitution in the name of false promises of security and safety was the last straw for me. I do not claim a great deal of intelligence, I only hope I have earned some common sense from my years. MY common sense is getting tired of taking the same old tricks up my A$$ !
