There is an interesting tactic these democrats are using and, I believe, it shows their desperation. Both she and John Kerry have made statements to the effect that no one has the right to say they are unpatriotic for opposing the administration and they will fight the notion, etc., etc. Yet no one of national stature has ever said they are unpatriotic. (For me, she is the personification of unpatriotism.)

So her tactic is to set up a charge and then deny it, in essence, framing the question and the answer herself. In debating, I believe this is called the "straw man" tactic.

Yet, if you ask her a direct question, she will avoid answering it. Remember her "listening tour"? It was "I'm going around showing my face, but I am listening, therefore I cannot be expected to answer any questions."

I am sure we will see extentions and variations of this tactic as her presidential campaign ramps up.

The great controversy in 1960 about JFK's Catholocism was almost entirely made up by JFK. He needed to be a victim of unfair bigotry.

If Hillarious, Clown Princess of Evil, gets into power, nobody will have the right to say anything.

Speculating about the Beast is the most fun topic on FR these days.

I'm on the side of those thinking she'll try "sooner, rather than later" and steal "more, rather than less" votes.
