Let me explain. The top democratic "brain trust" ( Carvalle and his ilk) has decided that according to the polls, Rush and Gingrich are not held in high regard across the land. They are riding on the theory that if they are the "face" of the GOP, the democrats will win. Period.
It is a calulated risk and I think they are on to something. If these guys are portrayed in people's minds as "blowhards" "bigots" or just plan "characters" carrying the GOP's water buckets....well...need I say more?
It doesn't matter that these two guys are genius's or not...when they "talk" people will not really stop to listen to them. That is what the Left is banking on.
The media can demonize an angel if it had to. They did it to Goldwater and they tried to do it to Reagan. They would beat on Ronnie as an old out of touch, senile geezer but he would come back and razzle and dazzle them with his wit and wisdom.
Where is the "next" Reagan?
