It’s Not Low Hanging Fruit

It all fell off the tree already:

On Moderate Republicans:

Keyes on Moderate Republicans
?On all the matters that touch upon the critical moral issues, Arnold Schwarzenegger is on the evil side. This is a fact. A mere list of the positions he supports is enough to make this plain: abortion as a ?right,? cloning of human beings, governmental classification of citizens by race, public benefits for sexual partners outside of marriage, disrespect for property rights against environmental extremism, repudiation of the right to bear arms – no more need be said to show that this candidate is wrong where human decency, human rights and human responsibility bear directly on political issues.?

WorldNetDaily, ?Arnold?s corruption of Republican Party,? October 6, 2003

Yeah, that’ll help the down ballot races. Sure. I’m sure that moderate pro-choice women in the burbs are going to love this guy. Sure of it. Certain even.

On Abortion:

Keyes on Reproductive Choice
?The violation on [sic] innocent human life is the same whether you commit terrorism or commit abortion.?

People For the American Way Foundation, ?The Vocabulary of Terror: Anti-abortion politics since 9/11,? April 10, 2002

Definitely a uniter.

On Homosexuality:

Keyes on Homosexuality
?Hitler and his supporters were Satanists and homosexuals. That?s just a true statement.? He added that, ?The notion that is involved in homosexuality, the unbridled sort of satisfaction of human passions? leads to ??totalitarianism,? ?Nazism,? and ?communism.??

People For the American Way Foundation, ?Hostile Climate 1997,? p.26

And on black anti-semitism:

Keyes on Jews and Anti-Semitism
?The tragic and violent clashes between blacks and Jews are unhappily not the product of a unique and isolated set of circumstances. I believe that, unwittingly, Jewish supporters of the government-dominated welfare state approach to the economic and social problems of the black community helped to create the mentality that now produces anger and anti-Semitism in black neighborhoods.?

  1. Over at OurCampaigns, speculation about just how gigantic Keyes’ loss will be abounds. With each passing day, and each notoriously shrill, unstable smear, I add about 2 points to Obama’s total. Right now, I’ll go with 70-29 Obama.
