It's Like Magic!

The group that brought you "Barack the Magic Negro" are meeting to decide who deserves to be the next head of the Republican National Committee. Fortunately, Dave Weigel is liveblogging the action. Here's a sample question:

Next question: How many guns does everyone own? Blackwell owns seven, which he uses “very well,” and Saltsman rapid-fire lists the guns he owns, ending with a 30 ought 6. “And Ken, I’ll take you on any time.” He means hunting, not dueling, I think.

In another round, candidate Mike Duncan suggests bringing young people into the party by Twittering.

See? Barack wasn't magic; he just knew how to use Twitter!

If tweeting doesn't work, they can always just wave their magic guns around. That'll win over the young 'uns.
