GOP Rep. Patrick McHenry, a key player in helping craft the Republican message, has offered an unusually blunt description of the Republican strategy right now.
McHenry’s description is buried in this new article from National Journal (sub. only):
“We will lose on legislation. But we will win the message war every day, and every week, until November 2010,” said Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., an outspoken conservative who has participated on the GOP message teams. “Our goal is to bring down approval numbers for [Speaker Nancy] Pelosi and for House Democrats. That will take repetition. This is a marathon, not a sprint.”
McHenry’s spokesperson, Brock McCleary, tells me his boss is standing by the quote.

You're gonna lose on more than legislation, sporto. Strategy sans substance is comedy.
This is the same little cocksucker who eviscerated a marine in the Green Zone for refusing entrance to a compound gym during a shelling by insurgents.
A true patriot, that one. WTF happened to the GOP? Abe? Teddy? Ike? You guys want to send some ghosts to clean this shit up?
