Obama Team had better get on Ellen, Letterman, Leno and FAST [View all]

Rant Alert:

Hate to sound like my pants are on fire, but they are on fire.

Due in part to it's complexity, and in part to our Party's lack of public education on the ACA, we are wide open for the propaganda machine on the right to create reality.

They are lying, and no one is stopping them. They are scaring people, just average folks, who are now
thinking they
(1) will lose their insurance
(2) their premiums will skyrocket (like they aren't already)
(3) that they will lose their doctor
(4) that their taxes will go up.

I saw Sanjay Gupta interviewing people who were asking "Will I still have my insurance?" Remember the average
citizen probably knows nothing about ACA...all they are hearing are the repuke soundbites.

I saw Gallup: Seniors rating of Obama drop 3 points since the Thursday.

the Obama Team needs to get a plan on how to stop this. Think outside the box. They need to come up with 5 simple, important points and get every single surogate to repeat over and over. They need to get on every single talk show and repeat over and over - "If you have health care or are on Medicare Nothing will change. Spend some big bucks on ads. Advertise a website, a toll free info line...Something. Obama should do a night time address - not just the afternoon one he did.

before it's too late

Phew. Thanks for reading my rant.
