Wowoweewow! Alabama GOP Endorses Democrat

If this isn’t a vote of no-confidence, I don’t know what is.
Shelby County Republican leaders last Thursday realized that thousands of voters in the heavily Republican county received a GOP flier urging them to vote for a Democrat. The flier which went to around 44,000 people shows a sample ballot with the Republican candidate selected in every race but one. In the Public Service Commission race, the GOP apparently endorses Democrat Susan Parker over the Republican Perry Hooper, Jr.

Republicans hastily issued news releases and held a news conference last week. State GOP Chairman Twinkle Cavanaugh said the mistake was unintentional.

Ho, ho, ho.

Sigmund Freud, the father of modern psychiatry, maintained that there are No Mistakes. Every action is there for a reason.

Jay,
I was pleasantly surprised to see that Democrat Parker beat Republican Hooper. The Republicans are finally starting to shoot themselves in the foot.
