Actually, it was a stroke of genius on the Dems part to do this...they were seeing that this story could not be ignored by the MSM. So what do they do? Ingratiate themselves in a positive way so that the MSM have good quotes from them...if you don’t know this story, the Dems come out looking good.
The 'problem'... is that Reid's Senate attack on Limbaugh WAS covered and covered well. Too many people saw it start. This is one scam that ain't gonna' fly.
