Va. GOP Uses “Senator” Marion Barry in Fundraising Pitch
Via WaPo's Virginia Politics blog, we learn that Virginia Republican Party chair Jeffrey M. Frederick, the guy who couldn't keep his state from voting for a Democratic president for the first time since 1964, has a new fundraising message out. Reports Tim Craig:
In another inflammatory barb, Frederick says Obama will push for voting rights for the District of Columbia and council member Marion Barry will become a United States senator.
"We beat back radical liberalism in the past and we can do it again," Frederick wrote. "We must."

I'm shocked that Jeff Frederick would say something stupid. Let's hope he continues to drive the Republican Party of Virginia further into the fringes.

Also, if Ted Stevens is reelected, Republicans should be barred from ever mentioning Marion Barry again. At least Barry served his time before making a comeback.
