anyone else catching this new spin?

new RNC talking point distributed to the media.

fucker carlson or scarborough went so far as to say one democratic candidate was really a republican.

they'll try and claim this too, in essence they are saying that democratic gains will translate to a rejection of "clintonism."

1. Well, now that it's obvious they can't beat us...
I guess they're trying to say we joined them. :crazy:

6. Yet Michael Medved a few days ago, begged
for all the conservatives to come out and vote for the GOP otherwise, the GOP will go moderate the next time.

7. Great, let them keep saying that!!!
Call the girl anything, but give her Arpege....that used to be a commercial eons ago!!!

If they want to say that, fine, maybe some of the nitwits will vote with us next time. Who cares what they think, so long as they pull the lever and let US govern.

If they're willing to put the adults in charge, let's not complain about their lack of logic about why they decide to go with us.

12. Bla Bla Bla

Well not really

-Moderate Democrat beat Conservative Republican in PA
-Liberal Democrat beat Moderate Republican in RI

How can they spin this? Sounds like total repudiation of the right-wing policies of this mis-administration.

13. wait until they get a taste of their own medicine
The dems now have a precedent with bush, of
introducing a zero-sum legislation plan, without
any bipartisan effort whatsoever, so indeed, they're
fucking praying that the new dems will roll over to
war crimes around the planet; we'll see.
