Who says the left won?
They’re crying wolf. Over and over.
People see there’s no wolf.
Eventually they stop listening.
Oh, bull. Rush is waaaay too smart to fall for bait. The Dems dared to have an ugly, smug slut go up and testify on Capitol Hill and Rush saw it clearly and called it clearly. My only beef with Rush is that he apologized.
That was my take on it too. The Alinsky tactic the left used on Rush was to get him (mean bully) to “attack” (using crude and hurtful words) the “victim” (female just wanting better health coverage for other young females). This is the classic “public sympathizing with underdog” tactic to win the people to your side of a political argument.
Often, this tactic will cross over into violence, where “peaceful” demonstraters deliberately provoke the other side into violence against them, winning voter sympathy.
Only way to fight it is to expose it, but the media, of course, supresses the reality, and instead reinforces the perception the leftists created.
