Pat Toomey defends against Okla. Rep. Tom Cole's claim that the Club for Growth is "stupid" to target liberal Republicans for defeat: "Winning for the sake of winning is an excellent short-term tactic, but a lousy long-term strategy.... A Republican majority is only as useful as the policies that majority produces. When those policies look a lot like Democratic ones, the base rightly questions why it should keep Republicans in power." Tom Coburn's 2004 defeat of Kirk Humphreys is mentioned. (Hat tip: John Eagleton.)
