Multi-Millionaire Mike Castle is starting a PAC to raise money to help “moderate Republicans” as if such a thing still exists.
Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.), a longtime member and former co-chairman of the Tuesday Group, said lawmakers launched the PAC to help vulnerable centrists (snip)
“You always want to increase your numbers or maintain them so that’s always a matter of some concern,” Castle said when asked about the declining number of House centrists.
“Any elected official is concerned about the next election,” he said. “With any of these moderates, that’s constantly an issue. You’re subject to attacks from the right and the left when you’re in the middle. It’s not approached by anything akin to alarm, but it’s genuine political concern.”
Castle is one of several GOP centrists the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has targeted for defeat in 2008.
Phoney “centerists” like Mike Castle have been in trouble ever since they decided to bend over for George Bush rather than fight for their constiuents and the Constitution. Now they are getting what they deserve – the ability to spend “more time with the family”
Mike – Don’t start a PAC, start having the guts to stand up to Bush. This is not rocket science.
