Wait, Did Matt Say That?
Jump to Comments
Matt Salmon, as quoted in yesterday’s Political Notebook column:
I think it’s very, very important for Republicans to pick people who can win in the general. I have lots of respect for the candidates who ran. But Jim Kolbe represented (District
for years and years and years, and I believe someone who was more in touch with his ideology would have been better.
So, is Salmon admiting that maybe Graf and was too conservative for the district? That maybe Republicans need to nominate more moderate candidates that are more in line with their constituency?
Has anyone told the Republican activists this yet?

Tedski,
That quote is from Matt Salmon, amigo. Here’s the quote:
“I think it’s very, very important for Republicans to pick people who can win in the general,” Salmon said. “I have lots of respect for the candidates who ran. But Jim Kolbe represented (District
for years and years and years, and I believe someone who was more in touch with his ideology would have been better.”
Why would Randy say such a thing? Think about it.
