Is there any reason why Leftist pundits from Beckel to Carville to Williams keep saying the GOP can't run against obamacare? They would be crazy not to!
The Dims are trying to do what they always try to do--set the GOP's message for them. They always try to tell the GOP what won't work and what it needs to do to be "relevant", the GOP gets scared that the Dims might be right, then do exactly what the Dims say they should do. Lucy moves the football, then the GOP waits 2 years and does it all over again. They say "the GOP has overplayed its hand on this issue" and the GOP gets scared and runs away from whatever issue they're talking about. Notice that the Dims never say things like "nominating John McCain is a bad idea".
