Sayin....and doing....are two different things.
First off the Republicans are moderates as, remember, the conservative thing is still a few years away.
So, the Republicans are keenly aware they have a slight edge and need to be smart, very, very smart....
And as smart as they need to be they need to be 10 times more clever.
We saw the Democrats release the CIA report yesterday without any Republican input. It was the Democrats trying to slander the Republicans before the takeover where the report would have got the attention it deserved, in the trash barrel.
However, the lap dog of the Democrats, the majority of the media, leap upon the story and have run with it non stop...
If you don't already know, and you should BTW, this should tell you this is what the media intends to do non-stop for the next two years.
Now Mitch ain't exactly my cup of tea either but stupid he ain't.
Newt wasn't smart enough, or over estimated his strength, with the Contract With America deal as the media single handily convinced most Americans it was a Contract On America.
I'm hoping the Republicans are much smarter this go around.
Don't give the media any sound bites, any talking points that they can twist around.
The Republican's must realize the media for what they are, a mortal enemy.
I have said it a thousand times, a shift away from Socialism will take years but it can be done. The media will try and stop it by any means they can.
All Mitch really did was to not give them SOBs anything they could run with.
