“We’ve seen the Republican party fall to religious righters and moderates who can’t hold their own against them.”
“The Southern Strategy has failed this party, and turned it from the party of Lincoln to the party of Mecham,”
“We cannot let ourselves fall to populism and the far right. We need a return to normalcy, if you will,”
“We need a candidate for moderacy.”
“That is why I’m endorsing Pete Du Point, a candidate for a return to the party of Lincoln!”
-Senator Charles Mathias of Maryland endorsing Pete Du Point
