Post Condemns Racist Ad, Terrorist Strikes NYC, GOP Delay Tax Bill
Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America applaud the Washington Post, not only for condemning the Latino Victory Fund ad that depicts Republican voters in Virginia as racists that want to run over minority kids but also slamming Democratic nominee Ralph Northam - whom the Post has endorsed - for a weak response to the ad. They also grieve for the victims of Tuesday's terrorist attack in Manhattan and get frustrated as the media immediately tried to rule out Islamic terrorism and then insist it's not a time for politics once they find out it was related to radical Islam. And they groan as congressional Republicans are forced to postpone the release of their tax reform bill because of ongoing disagreements within the party.
