I think the DBM should pick this up with a pair of tongs, because it is about the po-lice and abuse of power, and about a violent husband/father. This is a lifetime movie plot, and a good one. They need to be careful how they deal with this.
But Obama's people have already proven that they don't know how to handle the primetime. I suspect them to go after this, start to make a big deal about it, and then the McCain-Palin camp shoots back about how the guy is a child-abuser who threatened to kill Sarah Palin's father. So now it looks like the Obama camp wants to protect the proverbial "abusive jerk" husband against a person who is trying to protect her sister and nephew. Imagine how our side will turn this against the creator of the Violence Against Women Act.
