What do you think about this for 2014?

If there was a thorough examination of the 2012 mistruths, and we spend 2 years on setting that record straight perhaps enough doubt will surface to debunk the lies in the next election. For instance , the right really believes the Todd Akin kind of stuff----let that be one of the challenges. Another is the accusation of redistribution---the majority of those who voted Republican in the Red states get more government subsidy than the Blue states----could we pose the question---okay you want fair taxation ---let the Blue states get back dollar for dollar what they pay in---and let the Red states receive only what the Republicans think is fair. My belief is that there would be no roads, traffic lights or street signs in those red states unless the blue "liberal" dollars flowed there. What do you think?

A few gains in the Senate, more in the House (maybe even a majority). The GOP is fucked. HopeHoops Nov 2012 #3

It's time to expand the ground game to the Red State districts that can be changed. We know that it works.
