Liberal Media: Even If Democrats Lose Elections Today They Still Win
Because losses to conservative candidate just shows how, uh, extreme Republicans are becoming. Or something like that.
Is there nothing MSNBC can’t spin? A graphic on Tuesday’s Morning Meeting hopefully announced, “NY-23: Win-Win For Dems?” Apparently, even if Democrats lose the special congressional election to Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman, it just shows how extreme the Republican Party has become.
In a not-exactly-balanced segment, host Dylan Ratigan talked to Congressman and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committe Chairman Chris Van Hollen, liberal blogger Arianna Huffington and Professor Tom Schaller, who has written a book on how Democrats can win without the south.
The interview seemed very similar to one that appeared on Friday’s Situation Room on CNN. That program featured a graphic that read: “If The Dems Lose Next Week: How it might help them in the long run.”
Meanwhile, Democrats are also trying to spin these potential election losses as totally not being a referendum on the first 10 months of Obama’s term in office or anything.
The liberals are worried.
