The plan of attack

It's become brutally obvious over the past couple of weeks that the republican plan of attack (which can be neatly seen in this--another idiotic and factually challenged piece by Nolan Finley--ask anybody who wasn't wealthy how Reagan's economy boomed, it didn't) is to blame it all on Obama (majority of Americans aren't buying it) and to talk about how tax cuts and deregulation--both of which failed miserably under Bush the lesser and Reagan--will turn it around.

I mention this because it's becoming almost scripted (hell, it probably is scripted)--Cantor says it, Boehner says it, letters to the editor say it...but there's little push back from the administration.  While I wish Obama had been much bolder--and hope he is this Thursday--he still can strike back and he needs to hurry before the republican bullshit becomes the common wisdom.

The republicans created this mess--and as the massive mistakes voters made voting for republican governors in New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Florida show, if we don't keep reminding voters of this we are going to doom ourselves to an even worse standard of living than we're currently getting from republican leadership.
