Too bad our
"Whopper of the Month" nominations have closed, because GOP chair Robin Smith just unleashed a load of it in an
interview with Tom Humphrey. This will probably inspire a "Whopper of the Month" write-in campaign. Responding to new Democratic Party chair Chip Forrester's denunciation Saturday of the GOP's
"racist smear tactics," Smith says, "We'll let him play in the mud all by himself. You don't
get into a wrestling match with a pig. That's the only one who's going
to enjoy the mud."
She says Forrester's "bellicose" comments are unfounded and amount to "throwing red meat to his base." Pot, meet Kettle. Smith also praises outgoing Democratic Party chair Gray Sasser. She says she had a "kind relationship" with Sasser, disagreeing on policy but never engaging in "personal attacks." Sasser's probably slitting his wrists right about now.
