The GOPe puts the “Fee” in Feehery.

Thanks for posting.

BTW, I promise you this is worth a few minutes. One of my favorites.

Hey! I'm John Feehery and I'm right in line with Karl Rove. Who is this CEW dude anyway?

Feehery is also one of “Tingles” Matthews favorite GOPe consultants, FWIW.

With a name like “Fairy” he must focusing on the gay vote.

In my mind, I would find out who developed the “contract with America” idea in 1996 and place that guy prominently to develop a new theme for the GOP.

A key element the GOP abandoned that was part of the contract was the term limits.

GOP establishment support of Pat Roberts, Mitch McConnell and Thad Cochran proves the contract cannot be found.

In February 2009 he took to the pages of Politico in order to slam Rush Limbaugh with an infantile rant that was excruciatingly shallow and formulaic.

I hope Rush reads this article and "re-lives" the correct history on this ... and the introduction of Rick Santelli just days later.

Conversely, while the Contract with America gets a lot of ink in the history books, it essentially was an exercise in overpromising and under-delivering. The result? Bill Clinton easily won reelection in 1996.”

WTF? I hope both Speaker Gingrich and VP Cheney read this and "re-live" the accurate history of the Contract with America.

When Newt showed up he said, we can become the majority, we can take back the House of Representatives. We hadn't had the House since the 1940s. And initially, none of us believed it. But he was persistent, he was tenacious. He kept it up, kept it up, and kept it up. Finally by '94 he's the newly elected Speaker of the House of Representatives with a Republican majority. So I wouldn't underestimate him.

Great article. That guy really sucks.

Any politician who relies on consultants sucks.
