You call this Stone guy a "hatchet man" and then fault Mark Levin for pointing out that Trump's campaign style is more Nixon’s dirty tricks than Reagan's principled conservatism.

Attacking Levin is just proving his point.

Well first of all, "Hatchet Man" is not an insult to me.

He worked for both Nixon and Reagan, so that immediately undercuts your and Mark's assertion that ties him *only* to Nixon ( you just did it there ).

The notions that Trump matches Nixon over Reagan ( like you just did ) or vice versa, are both wrong. They are all different. Tying him to Nixon is where you go off the rails. THAT is an attack. THAT is what is going on today between these two guys.

Trump is campaigning with personal attacks and flip-flopping positions (no birther problem turns into a problem because of polls). Trump is the attacker. Levin is making that point. Trying to call Levin an attacker for saying Trump is an attacker is just ridiculous PeeWee “I know you are but what am I” nonsense. Levin’s point about Trump’s campaign style is valid. Trump is not using his media time presenting conservative principles and educating the public on Constitutional ideals. Trump is using his media time throwing verbal spit wads.

The fact that Mr. Hatchet Man worked for Nixon and Reagan is irrelevant to the point. Nixon targeted his enemies as a means to gain power. Reagan communicated conservative principles to the public, past the liberal media, and persuaded the public to embrace his conservatism.
