It sure looks like the dem party is not playing by the same rules as the Pubs are.

Sorry, I’m not following you - what rule are the Dems breaking?

First of all, I am surprised that you refer to the Liberally bias New York Times to back up your conclusions. Please find a credible source.

Secondly, I did not say that they are “breaking rules”. I said that they were playing by a different set of rules. Just today Romney is being villified by the media for having records sealed from when he was Governor of Massachussetts and I have yet to hear anyone from complain about all of Obamas sealed records. Doesn’t that strike you as a different set of rules? How about the way the media tried to protect Jon Edwards from “rumors” of an affair (while Rielle carried his baby around with her) and villifying Cain with no proof at all? Sound like the same rules? Didn’t think so.

It’s easier to destroy conservative candidates because conservatives hold higher standards than liberals. The liberals know this, so it makes it easier to destroy conservative candidates by going after their personals lives.

It doesn’t make sense to go after liberal politicians, because liberals don’t care.

You think it's possible they fabricated that quotation from thin air?

So the different set of rules has nothing to do with "paying for" the payroll tax cut?

(Which implies it needs to be paid for.)
