Limbaugh is right about not doing it alone.

The Democrats align their talking points with the MSM, with Pelosi in the House and Reid in the Senate, Schumer said he was given words to use each week, etc.

The Republicans do not unify across bodies like this. Boehner and McConnell do not seem to coordinate in a way that creates a greater strategy the way that Pelosi and Reid did.

Limbaugh is right.

Boehner should have coordinated with McConnell so that when the House passed their budget, McConnell was all ready to go to put Reid on the defensive about where the Democrat plan is. Each time the Democrats say that Republicans want to throw grandma off the cliff because of the House Budget, McConnell should have been saying "Where's the Democrat budget? All you can do is criticize Republicans for leading?"

Then, all the Senators deflect all questions during MSM appearances into "Why won't the Democrats show leadership? Where is their plan?"

That's how the Republicans should force the agenda with the MSM.

It's good that Limbaugh is advising candidates to have a conservative message, but he just finished saying how Republicans better get used to the MSM distorting the Republican message.

Having a message is not good enough. They also need the friendly media to help shape and get that message out, because that's what the MSM does for Democrats.

Completely agree. Where the hell did the PLEDGE FOR AMERICA go? Where is OUR unity? Why can't we find a simple group of American individuals that can stick to a plan, defend each other no matter what, and STOP DEFENDING but ATTACK!!

I, like many others, got very frustrated in 2005 with the Republican backstabbing and inaction. This was a leading charge in the development and success of the TEA Party. The TEA Party success was huge and 2012 needs to be another tide turning victory.

This is what Trump was trying to say, that was misconstrued. Its the Dems that need to be put on the defensive. Our side needs to up their game with the media message. Obama is already gearing up for their on-line and MSM strategy.
