Has anyone seen much evidence of this in operation?

This was early April. It's almost June. The attention being given to opposition to shutting down the legislation the house just rushed through is given to Republicans opposed to it.

Where's Ken Martin, Tim Hogan and the Democratic War Room? Anyone seen them around? Moving forward? Finally getting control of the messaging?

1. NOPE. Democrats' REFUSAL to coordinate and and do 24x7x365 offensive messaging is

killing the party, I'm sorry to say.

40 YEARS they are behind on this.

2. Chuck Schumer "Rope-a-Dope" approach.

Trump and the GOP cult will wear themselves out punching, and we'll pick up the pieces.

JUST LIKE HIROSHIMA

In the aftermath, we'll pick up the pieces and move forward.

3. I saw some reporting about the Democrats skillful machinations

to delay the Big Bogus Bill from reaching a vote in the House.

Obviously it didn't succeed in derailing the bill completely, and I don't know how skillful or special those efforts were. But I do know that it is a huge freakin' bill and the faster it moved, the less we would know about it. As it is, we are seeing a lot of reporting on some of the truly awful provisions in it.

IF that is due to Democrats actually working hard and deploying arcane techniques to achieve the (relative) slowdown, it's not nothing.

It isn't anything on the scale of what we want - or need - but I can provisionally believe it's not nothing.

Keep in mind that on our side is "good" and "just". On the other side, opposing good and just? Money and hate. And lots of both.

4. There are, perhaps, more ways to delay and derail it in the Senate, even with a GOP majority there.

More Republicans opposed to taking the blame for increasing the debt that much.

There's either a media conspiracy to keep Democrats on their back feet, and out of the media cycle talking about everything this bill is going to take away from the average, working class, wage dependent American population, or there are more Democrats focused on their own re-election than on the bill itself. I'm sure the media is doing its dead level best to keep the coverage of the truth at as low a level as possible, but I had hoped Democrats meant it when they started these new initiatives, for which they asked for my money to support. Time to be accountable for those gifts.
