From the National Review, about the moderate-conservative Republican's speech this morning at CPAC: "Despite his criticism of the GOP’s latest effort [which didn't attract enough centrist voters in last November's election],
Davis maintained that the problem lies with a lack of outreach rather
than with conservative philosophy or the Republican political platform.
Conservatism, he said, is not 'tired or exhausted,' merely 'tired of not
being defended.' He blasted political pundits who 'don’t want the GOP
to win telling Republicans how to fix this party' and had equally harsh
words for the party’s internal critics: 'Keep your lack of confidence to
yourself,' he said, and 'get out of the way.'"
More about the former U.S. Congressman's speech: "Davis, who is African-American, told his audience at the Conservative Political Action Conference that the black community is 'as conservative and faith oriented as many in this room,' in particular when it comes to the issue of education, and urged Republicans to focus their outreach on this issue."
