Scott Walker Fires Brand New Social Media Consultant After She Was Attacked by the Crazy Wing
Today’s Republican circular firing squad took place when presidential hopeful Scott Walker was forced to fire his new social media consultant Liz Mair (it was portrayed as a “resignation,” of course), who had been hired less than 24 hours before the debacle.
Mair ran afoul of the Republican Party’s far right loons when she made statements criticizing the Iowa caucuses, and supporting the “Gang of Eight’s” immigration bill. At Breitbart “News,” charming wingnut blogger Matthew Boyle labeled Mair an “open borders amnesty advocate,” because she simply isn’t insane enough for them.
This is just the first skirmish in what’s shaping up to be a wonderful internecine conflict, as the GOP’s crazy wing continues doing their level best to force any presidential contender as far to the right as possible.
