Schumers strategy for defeating the Tea Party is even more laughable. He believes that the Tea Party elites hate government, while the grass roots look to government for help: even the average Tea Party member likes and wants to retain most of what government does, he argues. Therefore Democrats need to champion government itself: We must state loudly and repeatedly that we believe government is often a necessary force for good. Unfortunately for Schumer and his ilk, the Obamacare failures continue to mount, and millions more people stand to lose their health insurance this year. Schumers strategy is not even new: the Democrats first tried it in 2010, under the tutelage of Chicago radicals like convicted felon Robert Creamer, who at least understood that the Tea Party is anti-elitist, even if he mistakenly thought that Tea Party supporters resented the wealthy. Schumers agenda is the same today as it has always been: to frame the opposition as extremists. To that end, he is even willing to acknowledge that middle class incomes have declined significantly and that good paying jobs have disappeared in the past few years. If Schumer truly believes 2014 is a golden opportunity to boast about government, then Republican victory is certain, despite deep divisions. As they say: good luck with that! breitbart/Big-Government/2014/01/25/Schumer-s-Plan-for-Beating-the-Tea-Party-More-Government
