When Conservatives Eat Their Own

It's not surprising when the GOP uses fear tactics to smear a Democratic candidate, but in this case they are smearing one of their own.

In Michigan, a Republican candidate for Macomb County State Senate 11th District primary, has become the target of a conservative smear.  It's no surprise that the smears involve the latest boogeyman of the right, the GAYS! Seems there is a flyer going around that shows the candidate, Leon Drolet’s face superimposed over a rainbow flag, with two male figures holding hands. The flyer goes on to intimate that if elected Drolet would sanction public sex in restrooms.  Say what?

Drolet's opponent in the primary, Kim Meltzer apparently is the author of the mailing which calls Drolet a "Libertarian" and even worse in the GOP dictionary, a LIBERAL!
