Republicans for Soros

Former FEC Commissioner Bradley Smith, now blogging over at RedState, attacks a Republican leadership so deathly afraid of George Soros that it is desperate to adopt his policy recommendations:

Unfortunately, leading Republicans Party strategists have decided that the GOP can gain the upper hand in elections by abandoning the principles of freedom and limited government, and trying to beat Democrats by silencing them through campaign finance regulation. Call it "527 Fever," a beltway disease that afflicts Republicans, and whose most notable symptom is a paranoid fear of George Soros and free speech.

Bradley Smith lambasted "McCain's War on Political Speech" in Reason's December issue.
