We all know what political spin is..... we watch it week in and week out.... emanating from Washington, from Sunday TV talking head shows.... and after debates.
But I just read one of the greatest 'spins' on unhappy facts that I have seen in years...
Obama and his team bragged that they were gonna raise a BILLION DOLLARS to wipe Republicans off the political map this year..... but in fact, as reported by the Washington Post, "At this point in the last election cycle, Obama had received such large
donations from more than 23,000 supporters, more than double the 11,000
who have given him that much this time. President George W. Bush had
more than four times that number of big donations at this point in his
reelection."
Watch out now - here comes the spin: Among the litany of excuses for folks sitting on their billfolds - "... the extended Republican primary has shined a spotlight on a field of
potential rivals that many Democrats believe Obama will easily beat."
Yeah, right, the entire House up for grabs a third of the Senate (mostly Dems) and Obamanation hisself.... and they want us to believe that the reason Dim folks ain't digging is because the GOP candidates are gonna be easy to whup! Right, I believe that....... not!
Do I hear folks whistling as they pass the cemetery?
