Boy, the conservatives had better get their message aligned with this stupid idea that the tea parties are racist.
Ive heard at least 5x in the last two days this so called incident with Lewis last week was not only true but they parse it as a collective mob. Geez, I am so sick of hearing about it and nobody challenges it, they just sit there and take it. MTP was disgusting, they are so full of crap and Frank Rich has an absolutely BS article in the NYT this morning.
Agreed. They could SO get advantage out of this if they would say that they disavow any such behavior but that the old playbook of simply declaring persons racist without anything concrete to support their allegations is outrageous and nothing but a ruse to malign a group of ordinary persons who are simply trying to exercise their free speech. Also...point out that there were NO arrests made at any of the rallies which is incredible considering the large numbers.
The had better start pounding back on this HARD.
I do believe Steele is busy hawking his book.
I doubt Steele truly aligns with the Tea Parties - other than to use them when necessary for political advantage. He most likely believes they are racist.
