What a coincidence - I just read something really strange - here -
http://demu.gr/10021291418 - I can only assume Nadin was watching BizarroDNC, because the one I saw was a ClusterBiden of epic proportion - where Delegates voice votes get overruled, DNC mouthpieces lie and claim there is no discord, speakers are moved/removed/reassigned seemingly at random, and the President's speech was relocated because of an abundance of sunshine.
We just saw something really strange
Last week we saw the RNC have zero message discipline. Beyond the "we built that" there was none... and the usual RNC themes, foreign policy, wars, even 9-11 as a noun, were mostly gone.
This week we saw a DNC that had message discipline, amazing framing... and talked about policy as policy.
Kids, we just watched the kind of historic two weeks we have not seen in a while.
I am serious, I do not remember the the DNC this disciplined. I mean demorats do not belong to an organized party, but this week, you saw an organized party.
I am in shock.
And it was not just the President.
Where there groups ignored? Yup, Labor, organized labor... where there groups included that have not ever before, who wants to start the list? I will, LGBT was there big time.
The lesson for labor is that it needs to get it's mojo back... that's the truth.
But my lord, we just saw a convention that actually had some hell of a framing effort and it worked.
Will the election be closed? Yup, it has to do with voting dynamics in the United States.
Will there be a bump? I expect it.
And one thing I do these days is that I really do not watch it, too distracting. Yes, there is physically a wall between me and the tv... so I listen to it, mostly. It helps to concentrate on framing far better.
Who do you thank? Wasserman Shultz, she was responsible for this one...
Got to hand it to her, she is faithfully committed. Perhaps to the point where she should be physically committed as well.
