Andy Barr is “On the Radar” in GOP’s “Young Guns” program

The Republican Congressional Committee yesterday announced additions to their “Young Guns” list, which is some sort of dumbly-named way of putting their lesser known candidates “on the radar.”

“These five candidates have proven themselves by meeting critical benchmarks toward building winning campaigns to defeat Washington Democrats’ failed agenda,” NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions (Texas) said in a statement. “These candidates are ready to fight for pro-growth solutions on behalf of middle-class families and small businesses that are struggling under Democrats’ tax, borrow and spend policies.”

The NRCC puts GOP candidates in the program in one of three ascending ranks: On the Radar, Contenders and Young Guns. Every Republican House candidate can enroll in the program, but they must meet certain fundraising and campaign goals to achieve those three levels.

Previous “Young Guns” include Paul Ryan, the guy who’s trying to destroy Medicare and put all your Grandma’s money into the private market. An idea so stupid, Andy Barr is blindly supporting it.

And for that, the NRCC put Andy “on the radar.”

Anyway, you can check out the Young Guns website here, though it’s not much to see… unlike the brand new campaign ad from the Barr Campaign which is freaking awesome and features the Republican Party falling off a cliff.

But they’re okay!
