D.C. chapter of Free Republic

Capital Comment

The shirt off their back -- The "Freepers," as the folks at Free Republic are known, are at it again. Back in 2000, they -- and not Republican Party activists as Karenna Gore Schiff suggested in last Friday's interview with ABC's Barbara Walters -- staked out a spot near the vice presidential residence during the post-Florida recount period, shouting "Get out of Cheney's house!" over and over and over again.

Now they are turning their sights on Democratic National Chairman Terry McAuliffe. The D.C. chapter of Free Republic has produced a T-shirt, one of which came in Monday's mail. The attached note read, "Election 2002, Terry McAuliffe, the man who disenfranchised (former Atlanta Mayor) Maynard Jackson out of the DNC chairmanship, lost the election and refused to take responsibility for the overall disaster." The shirt, black poly-cotton with yellow letters, reads "Hey McAuliffe -- Get out of Maynard's Chair!" Protests are expected.

Excellent one to have in sight at all times so he can't get away with anything.

Kristinn's great at that :-) Arguably, the clever media campaign he helped engineer in 2000 gave the U.S. Supreme Court enough political cover to finally stand up and stop the chad molesting in Floriduh.

The only problem I can see is that we should be encouraging the Dems to keep McAuliffe. He is the best thing that ever happened to the Republican party.
