Saturday’s Boston Globe featured a profile of newly minted Massachusetts Republican Party chairwoman Kirsten Hughes, the bait-and-ditch candidate Scott Brown (R-$$$) backed before he bowed out of the running for the U.S. Senate seat vacated by newly minted Secretary of State John Kerry (D-I Got Your Congressional Hearing Right Here).
And here’s what Hughes (“[s]he’s tireless; she’s just a little bundle of energy” according to another GOPnik) said:
I always found the Republican Party has been the party of the working people, allowing folks to grow, while being fiscally conservative.
The party of the working people? Seriously?
Your punchline goes here.

The Republican Party is certainly the party of white, working-class, Appalachian men. And of active-duty and retired military men, many of whom are working and/or working-class.
Methinks your objection is to the Republican Party’s success at convincing working-class people to vote against their own economic interests — or are you re-litigating the Marxist language of the 2nd millenium?
A little bit of both maybe.
