Translating the August 3 elections while Newsweek roots for the Ruling Class

Losers: Gingrich, Romney, Rove, Hannity. Winner: Michele Bachmann.
  • 4. 73% of Missouri voters rejected being forced to join Obamacare. (Newsweek says this is meaningless and would be shot down by courts. They must know some judges.)
Newsweek cheers for their pals in the GOP ruling class:
  • and figuring out how to keep their party from—to borrow a phrase—going rogue."
Labeling the Tea Party as 'not moderate' is almost as helpful as calling them 'racists' and prevents real issues from being discussed such as character and honesty.
The idea is to frame them as a radical right wing bunch of demented Neanderthals
While reading Newsweek I had to double check that I wasn't reading more Journolist emails. The 4 losers mentioned at the top of this post are members of the GOP Ruling Class.
