It’s a low blow in Alabama Republican politics to call someone an evolutionist, so a GOP candidate for governor who was hit with that charge is fighting back hard to prove his creationist cred.
But the the real irony here is that the attack ad calling Bradley Byrne an evolutionist is largely funded, albeit indirectly, by the state teachers’ union, which has an old beef with the guy. So they’re attacking him from the right via the disingenuously named True Republican PAC. Quite a story.
