Are The Republicans Stupid?

Joe Scarborough says, yeah, pretty much:

"They had the advantage when all the Catholics were on their side but they couldn't leave it alone and it just continues with one statement after another that makes them look like they're hostile, not just to Democratic women," Scarborough lamented, referring to other controversial comments that Limbaugh and other Republicans have made about the issue.
He said that his wife had even directed him to tell the Republican party to focus on the economy and leave women's health alone. "This has been going on for a month," he continued. "I swear, what is wrong with these people?"
He watched an old clip of himself warning that Republicans had to frame the debate in terms of religious freedom. "It was so obvious what they were gonna do!" Scarborough exclaimed. "They just weren't smart enough to pull back when they should've pulled back, and now the president is killing them in the polls."

No kidding.  I haven't seen the Republicans quit while they were ahead in a long time.  I also have been wondering what is wrong with these people.  Even now, they could probably drop the subject and undo much of the damage, but they just won't.
