Straight from the press release

If you read this Politico article, GOP's new diversity push, you get a real sense of the way one section of political reporting works. You can just hear the GOP "operative" on the phone excitedly citing "facts" to the Politico reporter to fill out the story.

But, if you really read it, a good part of that "diversity" is a large number of "candidates" who don't really have any any chance of winning.

PS. 37 potential candidates (who haven't even made it through their primaries yet) across a field of 34 Senate races, 435 Congressional races, and however many governorships, hardly represents "diversity." ...especially as that number includes women.
