Hillary & Chuck Muffled (No Shows at GOP Convention for Dem Response)
New York Post (print edition), p. 6 ^ | September 1, 2004 | Vincent Morris

The low-key Democratic response at the GOP convention is a sharp contrast from the Republican counterattack in Boston, where party luminaries included Rudy Giuliani.

Shrillary and Schumer are in Chinatwon reading their tea leaves.

They say: "Republicans in '04....try again later".

I don't think her presence was ever confirmed. I thought the terms were under negotiation.

Interesting - they had a quick clip of her on O'Reilly and The Hillary was asked point blank about her 'truth squad' and oddly, she sidestepped calling it that.

The Hillary's patented wide-eyed-deer-in-headlight stare was in place and as she scurried away from the reporter The Hillary was asked if she'd appear on O'Reilly. Back to the camera heading down a tunnel she says something like "We'll see."

The Hillary's got her real squad in place - in the Kerry Kampaign - ready for her signal that she's running.

Matt Bennett, a Democratic National Committee spokesman, denied the party was missing an opportunity to respond to the Republican convention each day, insisting that putting forward a high-profile lawmaker carries its own risk. "We want to make clear this is the Democratic response. It's not the Hillary show," explained Bennett.

Translation: Hillary bombed in her Sunday appearance, so she's in hiding for the rest of the week. Some leader of the Truth Squad!

The Democrats are avoiding any big name connection to or even distraction from the anti-Bush demonstrators. The Democrats figure that they can sit back and let the demonstrators do the job for them and the media will cover it.

I suppose they're saving the big names for the big night. We should see someone with name recognition tonight, and certainly HRC tomorrow night, possibly Bubba as well.

If we don't---that would make it official, Kerry=toast.
