Plenty of FReepers howled with disgust when Karl Rove went negative with the “Brain Damage” remark.
But guess what? IT WORKED. When you have even Bill Clinton reacting as he did (My wife does not have brain damage, so there!), then you know that remark struck a nerve.
Rob McCord:
In hindsight, maybe not such a good idea to focus your attack on ONE incident in a city of 40,000 that happened 45 years ago.
Not in a statewide race anyhow.
