4. Sounds Like Brownstein Agrees With Krugman
The Southern Strategy was no "left wing conspiracy" (hell it was a right winger who came up with the damn term)...and how the GOOP became the "white man's party"...grabbing all the old segregationists and creating a whole new generation of "more sophisiticated" racists. They don't say it straight out, they use codewords and strawmen.

Brownstein is one of the few straight shooters out there...most of the time.

5. I am finding myself enjoying this
but the problem is his talk is fact based, and 28% of CSPANners have fact allergies.

6. LoL. They even had a guy call up to say he was spreading lies only
to go on and not point out even one lie he has told. The guy was so uniformed it was beyond belief.
