Makes no difference. Repubs know the deck is stacked against them, so they need to avoid the pitfalls. This trap was laid out for Mourdock and he bit the bait.
Not that it matters much at this point... control of the Senate looks pretty much out of reach anyway.
We’ve stacked the decks against ourselves with F-ups like Scott Brown who is happily declaring that he’s ready to reach across the aisle at the earliest opportunity.

I agree - repubs have to be VERY deft in their handling of the media. And even then I don’t think they can avoid intentional media deceit.
