"Corrupt" Joe Biden... "radical socialist agenda"... these words and phrases come out of their mouths as easily as "May I snort another line Mistress?"

Maybe Dems could learn to do the same since the low-info folks grab these words and use them to form their voting opinions. I don't hear elected Dems calling McCarthy and his comrades "traitorous" on a regular basis to the press, and I suspect if we coalesced around a few key words and consistently used them in all conversations, particularly when speaking with the press, it might make an impact.

Or maybe I'm dreaming... we're too damn polite sometimes.
