The story is also the failure of the Republican leadership to talk about it in a way the American people can understand. Time after time the Democrats have shown the ability to articulate and stay on one message. A big lie, repeated often enough, becomes the truth. The Republicans cannot seem to find a message, must less keep repeating one. They allow the other side to set the agenda and therefore are always in the defensive.
Look at today. Obama and his Democrat friends are successfully labeling the Republicans as uncooperative partisans whose only contribution to public discourse is to say no. Where is the Republican answer? What do Republicans stand for? What is the positive agenda of the Republicans? My hearing aid is turned up and I’m waiting. . . waiting. . . waiting. . .
You’re right up to a point,but perhaps more important is the media...what the pubbies say (unless it’s really stupid) is never covered. So, the health plan that they put out last year was never talked about by the media.
