Quote of the Day

“I’m not sure trust is what people want from Trump. … I think they want from him his attitude, and I think that they don’t mind him being wrong on the facts. He doesn’t tell the truth on a lot of things.”

--Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC's Hardball

Attitude indeed...ADOLESCENT attitude raging against an adult that did them wrong 30-50 years ago. Why can't these assholes just go to therapy instead of making the country suffer?

I do wonder how long the wrong on facts thing will last.

A Most Excellent Summation

The video below is an excellent summation of why the tide is shifting to the favor of the Democrats.

I'll never understand how the power of fear causes people to retreat so much into fiction.

Why They Fail

Take a look at this video.



Obviously it is edited and staged but that's not the real reason why this is bad PR for the Democrats. Where's the bile, fear, anger, and hatred? It's a feel good story with a happy ending and many Americans in 2010 simply don't like that.

One would think this is something that Democrats could point to and tout as a success. I certainly think it is and I point to it as a chief reason why I voted for Barack Obama. He said he would bring affordable health care to people like this woman and he did it. Under the old law, her family would've gone bankrupt and died. It's just that simple.

Sadly, many of us thrive on the WWE like circus. This is why the folks at MSNBC will never cover a story like this. It's bad for ratings. Chris Matthews laments the Tea Party and their insanity but is actually one of their biggest helpers along with everyone else on that network. Stories like the one above don't fit into the media meme of "Obama sucks, Dems are Gonna Lose Big" so they won't be seen.

And this would be why they fail.
