When they started the blame game Friday night after the downgrade, I was initially concerned that the meme of it being the Tea Party’s fault would gain traction.
But the more I think about it, the more I am glad they are going this route. Who wants to be the party to tell the American voter that the problem with the conservative side is that they won’t raise taxes? That dog doesn’t really hunt with independent voters who don’t want higher taxes either.
I don’t want to be the political party that is claiming all our problems are because the other side won’t raise taxes. This meme only gets traction with the true lefty believers who depend on our cash.
I think you're right. I think if the dems start blaming the Tea Party for not wanting to raise taxes and wanting fiscal responsibility, then bring it on!
