In all the GOP-Morning Joe-MSNBC Teabagger handwringing, I didn't hear a word about...
David Frum's "Waterloo" article. While Joe was practically announcing his candidacy this morning, because the Democrats are done for, not one person on his panel of shills mentioned Frum's analysis of the trouble they're in. They'll show their viewers every article and editorial saying Obama is sunk, that the Dems have betrayed America, but when one of their own tells them the truth, they stick their fingers in their ears and yell NEENER NEENER NEENER! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

The article has been posted many times already, but in case you missed it, here's a link to one of the theads...

2. and Frum's points are excellent. Who is going to try to reopen the "donut hole", or take away kids
26 or under being under their parents plan and not being zapped with pre-exisiting conditions

How about Insurance companies can no longer impose lifetime coverage limits, and 40 million people who were not insured are now

Let's see them just campaign on those issues

3. I am amazed of how little
coverage was given to the name calling directed at Cleaver and John Lewis and virtually nothing about the brick that went through the window of Louise Slaughter's upstate office. Imagine if democrat activists did this kind of stuff to the republicans during the run-up to the IWR, there would have been calls by them to throw the dissenters in Gitmo, AND it would have been the lead story on every network.

4. Joe Scarbucks was beside himself....
He's having a difficult time accepting reality. The Democrats won a big victory last night. The Republicans had a huge defeat. This will impact the election in November. My hope is that the Democrats continue the momentum they have established and pass some progressive legislation before the next election. They have the Repubs on the defensive and they should use it to their advantage. Morning Joe is heartbroken but he'll get over it...
