The Parties Have Already Devised Their Midterm Messages - On Politics - Oversight - GovExec.com

    A good friend who is a former Congressional aide sent me this article about how the party's have their talking points for 2014 locked in..

    For the GOP, a referendum on Obamacare with all the stories about websites gone awry to an insurance death spiral looming.

   For Dems, its going to be all about income inequality this year, with its class warfare subtext.

    All the candidates in 435 districts, or at least the fifty in play, are supposed to chant in unison.

    Let's hope we can be given candidates with a modicum of independence who won't embrace the cookie cutter in its entirety.

     All these county chairs doing screenings need to look for the ability to challenge orthodoxy...That's not easy, as in order to function in the system you have to be somewhat marinated in it.
