Politico's Dylan Byers: MSNBCCCP In Freefall

by JASmius

Only thing is, doesn't an organization have to be above the basement in order to have any place to fall in the first place?



Hey, MSNBCCCP didn't have to make themselves the Obamunist Drone Channel.  That's all on them; they tied their fortunes to those of not just a political party, but a specific president, never bothering to attempt to imagine that the fortunes of that political party and that specific president could ever wane.  Now that they have, they've painted themselves into a corner from which only an Obama coup de tat can deliver them.

It's actually amusing that Dylan Byers is almost hoping for the 2016 election of "a really, really far-right Republican they could harp on for four years" as the ODC's salvation.  First, because it's probably true; second, because people like Byers always assume the same is true of Rush Limbaugh, despite one of El Rushbo's cardinal adages, "My success is not determined by who wins elections"; and third, because that "salvation" would only be temporary, assuming the Republican that got elected really was "really, really far-right".  Given the likelihood of a President Scott Walker replicating on the national level the successes he's enjoyed in Wisconsin, that electoral result could ultimately prove to be the nail in MSNBCCCP's coffin.

Or, more likely, it would make a bigger dent in George Soros' pocket change until Julian Castro was ready to go in 2024.  For simplicity's sake, O's coup will make matters much more streamlined.
