After being so close to Norquist and Delay, I'd have to run home and take a shower. {Shudder}

Isn't it interesting that Norquist's view on the Bush legacy isn't the failed war in Iraq, or the meltdown of the economy, but Reid, Pelosi, and Obama?
Republicans just don't get it -- not that I expect that people like Norquist and Gingrich ever will. The rest of the country is rallying behind the President, and even the Democrats (whose poll numbers are better than they have been in years) yet these people can't see anything except in partisan political terms.

Anybody hear any plans from the loons about what to do concerning the meltdown? Any strategies? Any message? Anything? All I hear and see is a retread of the same old bs that they have been shoveling for 30 years now. We are in 2009, not 1979. Big difference.
I really would like to know what their message and strategy is. You would think that they would want to know that as well. It really is bizarre.

I don't think confidence his high among Republicans, although with the stuff that comes out of their mouths, who knows? I think that the party leaders are still practicing the PR game the way Bush did...say it loud, say it often, and never admit a bit of doubt. It's what is keeping the faithful in line. The sad thing is the makeup of the party that leads to the claimed poll numbers among them for its positions.
