Anyone notice Repubs shouting "class warfare" to protect richest 1% are NOT WORKING ANYMORE? [View all]

Iin the past Repubs have whipped out the old "class warfare" defense against any mention that the richest 1% and corporations should pay a little more.

And now there is a discernible absence of such calls by Repubs.

IMHO it is a sign that they understand this is not working anymore to deflect public anger.

Politicians always have been tone deaf when it was required in order to receive fat campaign contributions. But in this case, we just may be sitting on the crest of a huge wave that is about to engulf the Republican Party and sweep them out of office --and the Tea Party Conservatives may just help the cause!
