Is the GOP Trying to Spin Solyndra as a Scandal In Response to Lichtman?
So a couple of weeks ago, everybody was talking about Lichtman's claim that an Obama win in '12 was a slam dunk. One of Lichtman's "keys to the Presidency" is a lack of scandals. Surprise...two weeks later, the GOP is trying to manufacture a scandal out of the Solyndra business. My guess is that this is a direct result of Lichtman's work coming to their attention. This is one thing that the GOP has the power to change instantly--they are adept at scandalmongering, and all they have to do is insist that it's a scandal and...voila...it's a scandal. The news outlets will give it the he-said-she-said treatment, and then the bad guys have opened up another front.
Next we'll be hearing about Troopergate 2011...
