Republicans Try to Make 'Liberal' Attack Line Stick

“Republicans unveiled an ad campaign this week that seemed to turn back the clock a few decades — by trying to turn the word ‘liberal’ into the kind of insult it was 25 years ago,” the Washington Post reports.

“This is a slight variation on what has been a steadily consistent theme from CLF: a steady attack on Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) as the potential next House speaker should Democrats win back the majority.”

“But the earlier ads focused almost exclusively on Pelosi, assuming the viewer already knew what she stood for and why they disliked her. In this week’s trio of ads, however, Pelosi is a bit character, appearing on screen for just four or five seconds in the 90 seconds of airtime.”

Liberal law. And Jesus was a liberal.

Democrats should run that ad.
