Young Republicans - Dan Coats is a tough sell

Not my words, but I have to agree with the concept. Let Hoosiers choose their own Senator.

clipped from rtv6blogs.com For young Republicans, Coats a tough sell For the 40 and under crowd, the name Dan Coats carries with it little more than inherited admiration borrowed from those who recall his nearly two decades of public service.  I respect Dan Coats because people who I respect, respect him.  But at a time when the Republican Party is reinventing itself and ushering in fresh candidates who bring new energy and ideas, the hopes for a successful Coats campaign rest with a generation of voters on Medicare.  That’s not exactly the post-Bayh future I was hoping for and it’s hard to see how Coats can effectively attract broad support and turn it into electoral success. Republicans needed Coats to raise the profile of this race and put it in the national spotlight against a political giant.  Now an open seat, it is among Republican’s top targets.  Coats had his time, and I’m told he served his state well.  Let’s thank him for his service and move on.
