Let's put it into context, with just one part of the scheme. Telling dumdums what they want to hear. Obama told everyone they could keep their doctors. How'd that work out? Is there some great idea somewhere doing well by the application of the republican model?
Or hey..hey, maybe the dems should suppress votes? I;m sure that voter suppression could be the springboard to countless great things.
The key isn’t telling people what they want to hear. The key is telling people what are afraid to hear, about your political enemies.
