A top official at a liberal super PAC with the goal of eradicating tea partiers from Congress is telling activists that it’s more effective to label Republicans as racists than criticize their policies.
According to an audio recording obtained by The Daily Caller, Matthew “Mudcat” Arnold, the national campaign manager of the liberal CREDO super PAC, told a gathering of supporters in Aurora, Colo., on Sept. 8 that they’ve realized “policy did not move voters.”
He used Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King as an example.
“When we said that Steve King … is pro-life and believes in cutting Social Security and voted for the Ryan budget, no one cared,” Arnold said. “When we said Steve King’s a racist, Steve King believes that immigrants ought to be put in electric fences, people moved.”
“When you talk about the substance of a man’s character, people respond,” Arnold continued. “Believe it or not, that is not something politicians knew.”

For four years I’ve been posting on various political blogs, giving FACTS and when the liberals can’t prove I’m wrong, they CALL NAMES like kindergarteners. That’s just the way it is when dealing with immature ignorant people!
It is all the Democrat party has left. They cannot run on Mister Obama’s record. They have NO plan, NO ideas, and NO solutions. They are gutless pretenders who must resort to Chicago Politicking, plain and simple. Lies, prevarication, slander and baseless character assassination is the norm for this failure of a party.
Just remember who were the rasist ,hint A. Lincoln and Dr. King both Republicans,Bull Connor and Geo. Wallace Democrats.Look at all the Mayors with the getthos almost to a man Democratic controlled cities.Trade one form of slavery for another!
I will agree with RepublicanOne and lastfreeman’s Statement. Democrats are just desperate to cover their own bad.
