Steve Benen points me to the latest foray into social networking from Speaker John Boehner:
Democrats like to say they want to fix #ObamaCare, but where’s their plan? They don’t have one.
It’s not worth belaboring the fact that this is epically dumb. What I’m curious about is what Boehner thinks this will accomplish. Who is it supposed to appeal to? To the tea party true believers, it’s too weak to be effective. They want read meat. To liberals it’s just laughable. To folks in the middle it’s incomprehensible. To the media—which knows perfectly well that Dems have plenty of ideas and Republicans are hopelessly fractured over health care—it’s idiotic.
So who’s the audience for this?
