Don’t these people have any real issues to discuss, or policy to put forward, or money to raise, or something to do other than whining.

Meanwhile, it’s hard to put something behind you if people don’t care about the truth and are willing to lie and make claims without evidence.

Before this was tied to Donehue, BFFT blamed first Rudy Giuliani’s camp (complete with a trash piece on one of his campaign staff), and then Tompkins (complete with a trash piece on Tompkins).

Now that it turns out the blog was written be someone else, rather than apologize for trashing two men who had nothing to do with it, they are simply ignoring the facts.

Meanwhile, the first day this was smart politics, pointing out the negative campaigning.

The third day, it’s whining, like your candidate can’t take anybody telling the truth about his past.

Fred Thompson, please — stand up, dismiss these people, and refocus on the issues. That’s why we loved the idea of you getting into the race — you were supposed to be the great communicator of the conservative message.

The conservative message is most certainly not “Waah Waah Waah my opponent said bad things about me that’s not fair waah waah waah”. Especially when it isn’t true. Victimhood doesn’t become you.

As another poster on this thread said (forgot who), this is all just the political theatre of moral indigantion designed to entertain the policial junkies (a.k.a. campaign activists) who actually care about such trivialities.
