Anthony Weiner to offer his insights claims that Democrats were right to pass the law, but that the public is simply too stupid to understand its benefits , and that the party should have done a better job of defending its members from public outrage over the issue. “Passing the law was the good thing to do and the right thing to do, but the campaign for it kind of stopped the moment it was passed. It was an article of faith that once people understood the benefits of the law, they would like it,” he said. “We were right on the substance, and right on the politics in the long term. But we have not done nearly as good a job fighting for it, communicating it, and defending it.”...Weiner's messaging problems--including lying outright to the media-- were entirely independent of his party's communication deficiencies.
