This tweet from Luke Russert seems to indicate so: GOP aides telling me it was a mistake to allow cameras into Obama’s QA with GOP members. Allowed BO to refute GOP for 1.5 hours on TV It might have been a mistake politically for the GOP, but it was a big win for America. It’s […]
TPM has obtained a list of new talking points being about the Scott Brown victory being circulated by Democrats: It is mathematically impossible for Democrats to pass legislation on our own. Senate Republicans to come to the table with ideas for improving our nation and not obstructionist tactics. When did Republicans ever say “well we […]
Ezra Klein, one of the most vocal bill-backers, has a really good plan – scrap the bill. But that doesn’t mean healthcare reform is dead. Instead he offers up items that could easily go through reconciliation: Democrats could scrap the legislation and start over in the reconciliation process. But not to re-create the whole bill. […]

I got a feeling that Shep will be pulled out to the wood shed and given a good disciplining by Roger Ailes later today. He totally goes off the FOX talking points and declares that the public option is not a government takeover.
This is making a lot of news right now, so I got to ask this – are you shocked? Boehner didn’t hold a single townhall during August. Instead he chose to speak to a gathering of tea baggers. Yeah there is a lot of support there. How about Boehner’s constituents contacting his office? Well I […]
Conservatives are out with their talking points on Sonia Sotomayor and they are priceless. I guess they couldn’t find anything to go after her on, so they decided they would question her intellect. So they want to compare Sotomayor to Harriet Miers. How many courts did Miers serve on when Bush nominated her? Oh yeah […]
