Media goes with GOP destroying democracy meme

 Newsbusters:

With increasing signs that the Democrats are headed for a big loss in the midterms, their allies in the liberal media have begun panicking.

In the last month they’ve settled on a last ditch messaging effort to frighten their viewers into voting Democrat, telling them that if the GOP wins, the Republican Party will begin dismantling democracy as they know it.

A terrified Jonathan Capehart, in an MSNBC interview, actually told President Joe Biden “I’m scared….millions of Americans are scared” of the GOP’s “attacks on democracy.”

NBC News historian Michael Beschloss warned “we could lose our democracy” on Election Day if the GOP wins big. MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace asked a Democratic congressman if foreign nations should send in election observers to ward off any Republican chicanery: “Do you think it’s time to ask for friends and allies to come over and help us monitor our elections?”

PBS’s Christiane Amanpour warned GOP efforts on election reform would put “America into the fast lane towards illiberal democracy.”

Oh and along the way to ending democracy the GOP will “sabotage” the economy, according to MSNBC’s Chris Hayes.
...

So voting against Democrats is now supposed to be destroying democracy.  I think we should all vote for Republicans just to show the Dems they are wrong.  The Democrat "destruction of democracy" is totally nonsensical.  Apparently, it is an attempt to frighten Democrats into voting.

Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
