Here is how Dems can start winning on Wiretap issue - very easy...
All they have to do is start demanding to know if reporter Christine Amanpour was spied on. This is such an easy tactic to use and has shown great promise in the past.

People in Washington thrive on their own self interest and the one way to get this moving is to get the press actively involved, just like the Cooper/Miller leak angle.

The press is like everything else - it just loves it when it becomes the attention getter. Some Dem in Congress should have demanded to know if she was caught in their wiretaps. Then the press would follow that story like lemmings before a cliff.

I just don't get how Dems are so oblivious to tactics like this.
