“Fox News will help you”
by digby
The Republican party of Florida says this call was “off script” but it sure sounds like it was on message to me:
Well think really heard, you all sound like senior citizens, no? …. Yea, you don’t want Obama, you don’t want Obama because he’ll get rid of your Medicare. You might as well say goodbye to it. … Yea, and I don’t know if you have done any research on Obama or not, but he is a Muslim. He has got a socialistic view on the government, economy, the whole nine yards. If he had his way, we would be a socialistic country. …. Pay attention to Fox News. If you can get out and watch that movie 2016, do so, it has a lot of really good information. Just really read the newspapers and Fox News will help you.
This is what Fox news and talk radio say all day long. Even the Muslim stuff is easily tolerated on the network and the rest is by the book Fox commentary. Rush, Hannity and the rest as well.
I would guess that there are many Romney volunteers who are saying this all over the country. They believe it.
