Just wanna say if anyone can save the Dems ass in Nov, its Tom Delay and Jon Kyl!

[saracat]

All the Dems have to do if keep them talking about how folks are "unemployed because they want to be"(Delay) and "how unemployment benefits and COBRA extensions are entitlements that encourage people not to look for work"(Kyl)and they could win despite themselves. if they are smart(which Ihave no reason to believe they are at the moment) they will use those words against them and start a massive GOTV.

1. That's a big 'IF'

Democratic leadership seems to be tone-deaf when it comes to picking out bits of repug speech and beating them over the head with it. Why in pluperfect hell doesn't party leadership craft a whole SERIES of messages around this latest round of misanthropic speech to come from members of the repug party? Talk about lost opportunities!

2. If indeed

it seems the only people who make hay of these are Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, KO, and Rachel Maddow. It would be great if the Democratic leadership would use these quotes as talking points but they either aren't smart enough to do that or are spineless. Maybe both.

3. Both, evidently

As recent evidence increasingly suggests...

4. What is wrong with Democrats if the crummy republicans and tea bags

otherwise known as the KKK can organize why in the hell can't the democrats start their own movement. Not the Democrat groups that are forever dunning you for money money money and you never see any good results. We could start a real movement. We could get the people organized and show the stupid democrats in congress that they are on their way out. that we are really going to make "change" and the "change" we make will be for the American People.

5. Interesting. Unreccs for an anti-GOP post! Sheesh.

6. I don't get it

I recced and already it is negated. I don't normally care or even pay attention to recs/unrecs, but this seems weird.

8. Some auto unrecc. Some are not allowed to have an opinion according to some.

it is really ridiculous. I sometimes wonder if some folks even read before they unrecc.Doubtful IMHO.But nevertheless, it would be a great idea for the Dems to make hay out of this.delay and Kyl could be the gift that keeps giving!

7. It's not yet spring, and we are predicting Democratic Doom for November.

We will win, they will lose. Things our President has begun are beginning to work to our country's benefit - and who has been opposing every one of the programs helping us out of the hole but the GOP, who dug the hole in the first place.

Encourage them to keep talking, louder and dumber every day. Broadcast their words everywhere every day and let voters understand who the enemy of America really is - the GOP.

9. Sadly this could actually resonate with voters

Just a new twist on Reagan's 'welfare queens'

Unemployment scares people, and when frightened it's not unusual to blame the victims.

I don't know. These f**kers wouldn't be out there saying it without scrubbing it through their advisors and think tanky people.
