The Republican National Committee
released a report this week titled
the Growth and Opportunity Project,
which showed voters view the party as
“narrow minded” and “out of touch.”
RNC Chair Reince Priebus called it an
“autopsy” report that shows the GOP’s 2012 failures and lays out the ways the party
needs to change. “If we don’t start now we’re not going to have any more success in
four years, eight years, or 12 years,” he said on CBS’ Face the Nation.

10 YEARS AFTER IRAQ,
POLL FINDS LOW
SUPPORT FOR WAR
Adam Lanza, who killed 26 people in December at Sandy
Hook Elementary School, reportedly kept records on
mass murderers for years. Investigators found a “chilling
spreadsheet 7 feet long and 4 feet wide that required
a special printer, a document that contained Lanza’s
obsessive, extensive research — in nine-point font —
about mass murders of the past, and even attempted
murders,” the New York Daily News reports.
Despite the large number of casualties
from the Iraq War, most Americans don’t
know anyone who was injured or killed
there, a new HuffPost/YouGov poll found.
Only 6 percent said they know someone
who was killed in the war, while 12 percent
said they know someone who was wounded. The poll also found low support for
the war, with 54 percent of Americans saying it was not worth fighting and only 24
percent saying it was worthwhile.
