Super Irony
December 23, 2011 - by
Democrats have fretted over the emergence of Super PACs, fearing that their big money and negative ads will help Republicans. But, so far, Republicans are the leading victims of Super PACs.
Newt Gingrich has been savaged by them. Mitt Romney feigns innocence while his millionaire friends dump a truckload of negatives on Newt. One assumes it’s only a matter of time before anti-Romney Republicans do the same to him.
Meantime, Democrats need to be organizing their own Super PACs to destroy the eventual Republican nominee next year. And a lot of the opposition research will already be done for us by the other Republican campaigns!
