Remember the slides White House aide Scott Jennings provided to Lurita “Cookies” Doan at the GSA for one of those so-called “informative” sessions on how the GSA could help “our” Republican candidates in 2006?
The slide show conveyed the same gist that Rove is still selling today; the presentation showed that in districts where the Republican member of Congress was dogged by scandal, the voters moved for Dems.
