      Consumers getting ripped off by credit card companies is an issue, and if Democrats are smart, they’ll be making a big deal out of this. I doubt they’re that smart unfortunately.

          Just make up some poll results and write the headline to be as damaging as possible to Democrats. Done and done.

    Republicans siding with corporations screwing over everyone in America? That shouldn’t be news to anyone. It’s their entire platform.
