Meanwhile, About That Other Divided Party...

Even as the big news orgs today were all over the story of how allegedly divided and dysfunctional the Democrats are, some Republicans were saying some pretty divisive-sounding stuff this morning about new GOP House Minority Leader-elect John Boehner and whip-elect Roy Blunt, both of whom were elected today:

“It’s going to be difficult for people outside the Beltway to believe we’re for reform…We’re going to need to have some stark contrasts" with the Democrats come January, Flake said, adding that he’s "worried" the new leadership team won’t provide that.

In other words, Flake was saying that Boehner and Blunt make the party look corrupt. The Republicans are pretty divided, too, it seems.

What's the big deal? You hand out a few checks for the tobacco lobby on the House floor, and all of a sudden everyone thinks you're a crook.

But notice how the MSM is never going to frame it that way.  The Republicans are "regrouping"; the Democrats are "divided and in disarray."  This in spite of the fact that Murtha was soundly defeated, while Trent Lott squeaked by with a 1-vote margin.

Ah well, at least they're paying attention. And when Nancy Pelosi holds a few no brainer votes on legislation or oversight we should have had years ago and every Dem and half the Repubs sign on it'll be fun throwing this garbage right back in the media's faces. And I suggest we keep doing it until they get it.
