The Democratic Party Has an 'MSNBC Problem'

6. i actually don't really think we should overly focus on "bread and butter" issues.

there's only one issue that matters at this point.

do you want a democracy based on the rule of law or an authoritarian borderline dictatorship when the law is whatever republicans can get away with?

everything else follows from that. imho, it's a gating issue.

you want social justice? good luck getting that in a borderline dictatorship.
you want economic fairness? good luck getting that in a borderline dictatorship.
you want better pay and benefits? good luck getting that in a borderline dictatorship.

democrats shouldn't try to stick to a message that can't get through. if the media wants to talk about republican crimes, that's not really a bad thing for us. just turn it into a reason to vote for democrats. remind voters that democrats don't do crap like this, we're not up to our eyeballs in blatant criminal activity.
