Well the Republicans Own the Message AGAIN!
The Dems have failed today by not OWNING the message after the bill failed. The Republicans came out and filleted Pelosi and the Dems for making this a partisan vote and that they cannot lead anything.

Fuck the Dems for not owning the message. Same old group way behind the curve.

4. Uh, this isn't going to help the Repubs
not at all. They were counting on this passing, but still have most of their caucus voting against it.

They didn't know we couldn't muster the votes either.

Their plan to screw us bit them in the but. And the whole country, too.

8. Complaining about how their feelings got hurt does not look good.
They're blaming her for being partisan and not rising above it, so they do the same in turn? Fucking hypocrites.

17. Good. Mathews is saying, "it's a failure on the side of the pukes and John McLiar"!!!
Reaming the pukes. "His problem now is that he couldn't lead his party!" regarding McCain

18. I am watching CNBC
The Repubukes Boenher and Blunt were on a presser before the Dems so I reacted pretty angrily. I think overall most of the people on this thread is correct that in the longrun this will backfire for the right. I hope they are correct.

15. I call your BS -- what happened to McCain taking credit for the bailout this morning?
Edited on Mon Sep-29-08 01:46 PM by ClarkUSA
As a test of leadership, then McCain failed as Republicans voted 2-1 against. Just wait until Pelosi comes up.
Chris Matthews is saying it's a failure of the minority to corral the proper amount of votes that they promised
to Pelosi. So much for the GOP message.

"The Republican Party failed to deliver their half of the deal." ~ Chris Matthews

16. Doesn't look like they own it to me
We need some adults in our govt. Basically what they said is their feelings got hurt because someone said something mean about them.

I don't call this owning the message.

20. You're behind the curve.
The discussion today is how McCain couldn't rally his troops.
