I Agree With Ed Schultz - A Dem Running On Fixing ACA Is Sending The Wrong Message.....

when he pressed Wasserman - she kind of defended this tact. So the problem starts at the top.

They need to run a positive campaign and tout the benefits of ACA - not say that they are going to fix it if and when they get to D.C.

This is a negative approach and just telegraphs the wrong message and plays into the hands of the Repubs.

We just never learn!!! The Repukes can fuck up anything they touch but they come out with both barrels blazing, insisting that everything is wonderful and why you can't believe your lying eyes. And people buy it! I'm so goddamn sick of Democrats cowering and desperately trying to appear to be "reasonable, comprehending wusses". We need to take a page from the Repukes and shout the wonders of the ACA to the sky. Never mind that there are things we might like to correct - the little minds of the low-information voters only hear "Oh Gee, Oh well, Gosh, you might be right..) before they change the channel to Fux and find out the "real truth". Defend the ACA and the President and the voters might change their mind and respect us.
