Republicans are terrified of James Talarico.

I’m thinking some republicans and independents will be voting for this guy.
So far they have accused Talarico of being gay and a vegan.
And now the right has a problem with consensual relationships.

1. As well they should be!

He is everything they want THEIR candidates to be, and all too often are not:

conservative (small "c" ), religious, young, attractive, gets along well with people, including people who are independent and undecided, and doesn't easily get flustered when the cameras are on and the tape is rolling.

Their problem is that he is one of us, not them.

2. This hit piece was written by a conservative guy who manages conservative campaigns

It’s hilarious that he writes this oh-guess-what filth about Talarico when his boss anchors the filth category.

3. Republicans are really scrambling with Talarico

Oooo, he has a girlfriend. Oooo, she's vegan. Oooo, he may have started dating before she left his employ. And Oooo--worse yet--she is a lobbyist for women's issues.

Lame and lamer.
