More from the Daily Mail I will say one thing. This is a testament to the power of a good message, and message unity. If the Republicans can sell this, then Democrats truly need to rethink why it is their messages don’t filter out as well as the GOP’s. I’d argue that those on the left who know how to spread a message, e.g., the Netroots, are pretty much ignored by the party establishment. Oh, they send us the occasional talking point, do the occasional conference call, and even buy a few ads on the site (which is appreciated), but we’re the ones who have a proven ability to spin a message effectively (and the party knows it). Why are we not part of the discussion?
