I know I said using the term "narrative" indicated the speaker was a douche, but in this case... they are actually caught in the act of rehearsing their narrative.  Democrats, that is.  I can't even think of another word to describe it... they are definitely getting their story straight before they talk to the press.

   Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., a member of the Democratic Senate leadership, got on a conference call with reporters Tuesday morning without realizing the reporters were already listening in....

   Schumer instructed the group, made up of Sens. Barbara Boxer of California, Tom Carper of Delaware, Ben Cardin of Maryland and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, to tell reporters that the GOP is refusing to negotiate.

   He told the group to make sure they label the GOP spending cuts as "extreme."

   "I always use extreme, Schumer said. "That is what the caucus instructed me to use."

   Someone must have finally told Schumer that the media were listening and he stopped talking midsentence.
