lashed out

I always take those to be buzzwords indicating the editorial slant of the reporter. The writer thinks these groups are morons but can't state that in print.

It is good that the views of the groups are presented. Hopefully, it will help with independent religious voters.

"U.S. Senate candidate Bob Casey, Jr"

Used to be there would be a "D" or an "R" after some Senate candidates name....but, today's writers guide for journalists must say....ONLY note the political party if it is a REPUBLICAN!

"Any attempt to portray this candidate as pro-life, or supportive of traditional values, collapses in the face of this simple fact. You know a candidate by the company he keeps more than by the things he says."

Agreed. At least, the writer recognizes that MoveOn is a "radical left-wing group".

Without Michael Moron and George Soreass, the Dems would be in Chapter 11.
