NHGOP Denounces NH Dem Candidate's Palin Death Wish ("too bad Palin wasn't on Steven's plane)

Check out this quote from the Manchester Union-Leader as the NHGOP shoots themselves in the foot...again.

Late yesterday afternoon, Republican state Rep. Steve Vallaincourt sent an e-mail to his fellow legislators and numerous media outlets defending Horrigan.

"Rep. Horrigan didn't wish anyone dead; he simply stated a political truth," Vaillaincourt wrote. "Were Sarah Palin to die today, her myth, like actor James Dean, would surpass anything she's done in life. If Dem officials took Rep. Horrigan to the woodshed for these remarks, they rather than he should be resigning."

Reaction from Democrats was swift.

New Hampshire Democratic Party Harrell Kirstein's news release last night was titled, "Will NHGOP Practice What They Preach? GOP Representative praises comments about the death of Sarah Palin."

Kirstein wrote: "If the New Hampshire Republican Party is really concerned with abhorrent political speech, they should immediately denounce Rep. Vaillancourt's comments and ask him to resign."

Sheer genius.

Thank you so much, who knows what evil?!!! Here we go again.
