Yes, he actually said that! Here in Seattle, yesterday.
Michelle Malkin thinks it should be his campaign slogan.

About The Reagan Wing
Michelle Malkin is going to speak at the Washington State Republican Convention in Vancouver this weekend . As most know she worked for the Seattle Times in the 1990s as their only conservative commentator (well I guess they had Carlson for a while but then fired him).
One of my favorite articles that she wrote during the time she was working for the Seattle Times was an article about two picnics she attended one summer day. One was a traditional Republican picnic held on Vashon Island at the estate of Businessman and Heavy GOP donor Tom Stewart. The other was a picnic that conservative activist Bob Nix put on at his farm outside Chehalis (attended by “tea party types” though of course that isn’t what we called ourselves back then).
Please read this very good column. Yeah, it’s our past but it could also be future if the Republicans get control of our state legislature this year.

For those who will be attending her speech in Vancouver this weekend I hope you get the chance to talk to her and if her husband is there him as well.
Others are alarmed by the government’s infringement of privacy rights; still more disturbed by the GOP’s power-intoxicated leadership, whose main agenda is getting re-elected. “What we basically have,” says Sylvia Sterling of Randall, “are Socialist Party A and Socialist Party B.” A group of grandmothers – who dedicated years to stuffing envelopes, making yard signs, and volunteering for Republicans – agrees.
I personally am still at the stage of wondering if Republican leaders believe in anything really. Democrats at least believe in something (unfortunately it’s the exact wrong thing to do believe in) but for Republican politicians it seems to be all about staying in office.
