This has got to be one of the better take downs of a political spin line that I’ve seen.

“I think President Obama is leading,” she unsurprisingly said. “But unfortunately, you have a Republican Party that has decided that by saying no, they can, you know, perhaps gain more at the polls this coming fall.”

The Democratic party have been trying to portray their opponents as the “Party of No” while they are the party of “know”.

Will was having none of this, and smartly countered, “I want to say something in defense, particularly to Donna, of being the Party of No. The Republican Party elected its first president because he said no to a bright idea a Democratic Senator had.”

Of course, that President was Abraham Lincoln, and what he said no to involved slavery…

Here’s the video – he had quite a few zingers that day.
