ZitatAppearing on Monday's The Daily Rundown on MSNBC, Washington Post reporter Dan Balz touted Democratic spin that the ongoing Benghazi scandal could actually help Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign: "I talked to somebody over the weekend, a Democrat, who said, you know, this could actually be good for Clinton because the degree to which the right is really after her helps her with her left....if she's under attack by the right, the Democrats across the spectrum will be more forgiving of her."

Host and NBC political director Chuck Todd led off the exchange by wondering if the House GOP was just "playing politics" with the issue by announcing a select committee to investigate the 2012 terrorist attack. Balz declared: "I mean, I think the base of the Republican Party is very stirred up and continues to be very stirred up over Benghazi." Todd whined: "And they believe the worst in this conspiracy about the White House. And they believe it to the core."
Yeah. Because pandering to your radical base is really a winner. Just ask Fritz Mondull about how well it worked out when he openly called for raising taxes.

Mondull was 30 years ago - the country has declined remarkably since then. Zero's election (twice) underscores that point.
Now - for the most part - the democrat base pays no taxes. And those that do - the Gates', the Buffets, the Hollyweird libs - are so filthy rich they claim they don't mind "paying their fair share."
If a "mondull" were to run today - against a typical establishment GOPer like Romney or McClown and not a Reagan - I think he'd win.
The Left wins by controlling the language used to describe things. It's ethnic cleansing not genocide. It's pro-choice not pro-abortion, it's a revenue increase not an increase in taxes.
We on the Right better wise up and start countering these fable descriptors by using and labels accurately and in our favor.
Call things the way they are, not the way some armchair elitist wants them phrased.
It's said that whoever controls the language controls the culture. And the way it's going the Left is winning the battle because the press uses their language and is on their side.
