The Newer, Softer Iteration of American Crossroads

One year ago, the Karl Rove-backed super PAC American Crossroads announced the creation of the Conservative Victory Project, an initiative it promised would torpedo Senate candidates who were too flawed to win a general election. The days of Todd Akins and Sharron Angles costing the party winnable Senate seats were over, so its backers said.

But as activists ridiculed CVP as doomed to fail, it didn't raise any money from donors last year, and most activists forgot the once-ballyhooed project even existed

The days of Todd Akins and Sharron Angles

Hallelujah!

Give us more Scott Browns and Mitt Romneys!

Akins was NOT a Tea Party candidate. God, I wish the establishment hacks would stop repeating this crap.

And Angle in a padded room would still be better than Reid.

“And Angle in a padded room would still be better than Reid. “

Rove and Crossroads did not support Reid and would have agreed with the above.

However, most of us would have preferred Sue Lowden instead of Angle.
