'Today' Turns to Leftist and a 'Moderate' for Advice on GOP Comeback

.
When NBC's "Today" show, on Wednesday, devoted an entire segment asking the question "How Should the GOP Battle Back?" who did they turn to, to offer strategic advice? Leftist Nation editor/publisher Katrina Vanden Heuvel and self-described "moderate" radio talk show host Michael Smerconish.

Not surprisingly neither guest suggested the Republican Party should be consistent in expressing and acting on conservative principles as Vanden Heuvel railed:

"America needs a modern, tolerant opposition party. This party isn't it. Especially with, you know, poor Michael Steele, you got Dick Cheney roaming the country on his "I am not a torturer" tour, as if he's working this country like a defendant working a jury. Michael Steele has a lot of problems when you've got Dick Cheney and Rush Limbaugh out there."

And for his part Smerconish offered:

"The party exists for one reason, to win elections. And in order to win elections, it can't just be a conservative message. There's got to be something in there for a guy like me who's a moderate."

[The disinformation campaign continues - don't believe it. Steel's speech went over very well, and is where the party's base wants it to head: back to Reagan conservatism.

The libs know this as well, and that it would spell their doom - hence their full court press to offer their 'advice' on how to salvage the party.

Right. Sure. Who could suspect an ulterior motive.]
