Best Democratic response EVER!!!
byEclectablogFollow

Bwahahahahaaaa!!!

I just got DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz's response to Mitt Romney crushing Newt Gingrich in Florida's primary tonight. And it's good. Very good.

But the best part? The preface that came before it from her media person Greg Greene:

Before I give you the Chair's comments about tonight, it's worth underscoring that Mitt Romney had the best victory a massive financial advantage can buy. When the ads on the air on your behalf outnumber those for your opponent by a factor of 65-to-1, we can put to rest any notion that you won because of grassroots passion for your ideas.

(Fun fact: only 0.1 percent of the ads aired in the entire Florida primary campaign — and Romney, with his allies, aired 13,000 of them — were
(a) positive and (b) for Romney. Those were in Spanish.)
