Desperation in North Carolina?

Apparently the Republican national committee has come up with a new strategy for Elizabeth Dole: vote for me because we are going to lose the White House!

Ben Smith reports that the NRSC is running an ad on behalf of Senator Elizabeth Dole that argues against electing Dem challenger Kay Hagan because of the specter of total Democratic control of Washington.

"If Hagan wins," the ad says, "they get a blank check." This, of course, seems to presume an Obama victory.

As one Democrat joked to us: ""Republicans launch new campaign theme: All the rest of us are gonna lose, so elect me."


Well, it might work.

UPDATE: Now even aol.com news has picked this story up as a sign of Repubs' confused message.

not that I am gloating or anything.

You have GOT to be kidding. This is totally surreal.
