I didn't see or hear that. Even though you have zero credibility I'll give the benefit of the doubt that it happened. So what? Liberals hate the idea because it promotes tax-breaks (that work) and steals an issue from them. A lot of conservatives, like you, see it as a matter of race or are otherwise too willfully ignorant to understand what Keyes is saying. Or why.
...the fact that Keyes got NO traction indicates that his idea went over with conservatives like a lead balloon.
Again, that's a meaningless observation. Every criticism I've heard shows either a lack of understanding of conservatism or Dr. Keyes plain english, or both.
Of course. Keyes and his followers are the only ones that "get it." The rest of us are just dumb schmucks.
No wonder Keyes never gets elected to anything.
