LOL GOP are now using that "weakness" talking point

[truthspeak]

I'm listening to fox radio and the repubs are searching for a new talking point, now that the "rigid liberal socialist" meme has been completely DESTROYED...so they adopted the "Obama CAVED in" meme.

Now they are talking up "Obama MUST be challenged from the left in the primary", even when they just got their way.

LOL they are running SCARED, so they are trying to get the liberal base to turn on him by 2012...I pray the left are not dumb enough to fall for this.

1. Last I heard, FOX News does not control the Democratic Party

We'll choose for ourselves who will be our Presidential candidate in 2012.

[Whisp]

2. Time's a ticking. Who?

better start making those inquiries

5. Lol!

3. Sorry, they are not scared

they know exactly what they are doing.

4. Dude, it's not the repukes who are scared. Nt

6. listening to Laura Ingram this

morning, the talking point was that the republicans caved in to Obama to support unemplyment insurance extension and reinstatement of the death tax. The move by Obama has emboldened the republicans. Next time they will ask for tax cut plus a war with Iran

[truthspeak]

8. Lol so they are both confused and scared

divide and conquer the enemy...Obama win-win

[MrsCorleone]

10. No,

it's a win - win for transnationals.

7. Gop has been SCARED of Obama since he beat Hillary...

It was hilarious listening them trying to stoke liberal anger for Obama...basically egging them on in challenging Obama in a primary.

They're are scared because they know he will be FORMIDABLE in 2012 if he takes more moderate positions.

"HE MUST BE STOPPED!!!...by you liberals" lol

9. GOP running scared?? What planet have you been on?

[truthspeak]

14. They are...too blinded by anger to see it?

[JustAnotherGen]

11. Eh? No - don't think so

They are laughing at how easy it is to push Democratics around, manipulate the ignorant, and craft Crafty Sly messages.

They are not afraid of us. They think we are a joke. And we are.

12. Sounds like they've been reading here to get ideas.

:shrug:

[truthspeak]

13. Right wing are taking "liberal concerns" more seriously now

before they would still continue to say "Obama is a socialist" despite obvious anger from his "socialist" base at him...Now they know they can't use that talking point anymore, so they are jumping on this "weakness" meme, in hopes they can get the liberals angry enough to pose a primary challenge to Obama in 2012...

Do I have to spell out why they would gain from that outcome...and why they would be pushing for that so hard?

15. It's not the "liberal base" that is revolting. It's the progressives.

In all definitions of that word. We'll see how the vote shakes out.

[CakeGrrl]

16. If this site is any indication, they'll have plenty of help from some Progressive corners.

17. Exactly. Hits the nail on the head.
