I'm totally agreeing with you - that's why it's so annoying that every time a political party get a good idea, they wrap it in these points and don't allow their representatives to say anything else. Even if a talking point is true - shouldn't the electorate hear why? Unfortunately, the facts are longer than a sound bite, so that's why I think they stay off the news.
As for the economy, blaming the economic downturn in 2001 on anyone is stupid. You can see from Rudey's graph the downfall start in 2000. It was the dot-com burst (amoung otherthings)... and at least at that point there was nothing anyone could do to stop it.
