College Republicans Make [horrendous] Videos for 'Pub Governors

College Republicans are somehow even less connected to today's youth than Republican Grandparents

My favorite Onion video belongs here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoSlRf1NtGw

That's too bad. 

And they actually had a decent video too that would've made a far better ad.

This one just makes you feel good, even if you totally disagree with their policies.

That's worse in a lot of ways.  Anybody can say, "I'm a member of XYZ party because I like good, fresh ideas and jobs and opportunity and liberty and freedom and stock footage of American flags."  If you don't even go into your specific beliefs, you could just change a few words and that ad could be a young Democrats or young Green Party or young libertarians ad.  It's just an example of empty rhetoric.

But, on top of that, framing the Republican Party as the party of new ideas and young people is just insane.  Regardless of your beliefs, that doesn't square with current reality, moderate Republicans are proposing the new ideas of 1980 and Tea Party-ers are proposing the new ideas of 1880.  Or, just take the definition of conservative, conservatism is not an ideology of new, fresh ideas, that's precisely what it isn't by design.

Worse than all of that is it sounds like they're just reading straight off a FOX News pamphlet. There's no passion or heart like they actually know what they are saying.

There's nothing more depressing than being a college/young Republican.

It's fine. They don't get girls, they'll be less likely to reproduce.

Seriously.   off...

What an ignorant and offensive comment made by someone that is supposed to follow the ideology of "tolerance".

Those poor College Republicans.
