Having the same funding sources, the (D)'s find themselves unable to separate convincingly from the (R)'s. If you look at the congressional approval ratings, the public sees both parties as about the same. 30 approve vs 60 disapprove for both. The continual (R) consistent lie fountain probably contributes to that. They obviously meet, get the latest Frank Luntz focus group data and phrasings, and agree on the exact phrasing for lies, and then you hear the decision on the Sunday talking heads programs, as different (R)'s spout the exact same lies. We know that Rs lie and Dems usually don't because we follow this stuff closely. Most Americans don't. In addition, Rs have be promoting their lies for decades.......so long that they seem to be true even when they defy logic. Finally, many Americans still believe that Rs are the more fiscally responsible party. I did too right up until Bush got elected. I would have sworn on a bible that it was true. Finding out that the GOP is so screwed up and corrupt has been a major wake up call for me.......that fiscal responsibility is the least of their concerns. I just wish more Americans realized that fact.
