Of course this is what is happening. The same can be said for the 24/7 bashing of President Bush that has been going on for months now. This is the Clintons, no question, no doubt about it. So many don't even realize that they are playing right along with it either.

"In 2000, it was then-Gore aide Lehane who took an innocuous Republican campaign ad that flashed the word "De-moc-rats" across the screen and turned it into a major scandal."

Lehane's tactic was so successful that we still call them "RATS" today.

Some labels are just so apt.

And .. as a result of that ad, the DEMOCRAT party has tried (with some success) to change its name to the DemocratIC party to keep the repubs from using the "rat" or "rats" against them.

For this reason, I always call them DEMOCRAT not democratic.

Same here... They are DemocRATs!

So, Lehane is looking to go round 2 with Rove?

[adam_az]

Anyone know lehanes DUmmy name?

What do you want to bet that he reads FR?




Wonder what he's going to try against Bush this time around? Remember last time, the lame 30 year old DWI?

[CyberAnt]

LOL! The "ick" sure does fit them.

[searchandrecovery]

If there's an "assassin" I'd say it's Dean's foot, which has had an unusual propensity for showing up in his pie-hole. Self-inflicted wounds (er, speaking his mind) is what has brought the once-mighty Dean down. If he would have stopped speaking about 3 weeks ago he would still have a lead.

[BenLurkin]

It could be worse:

[Enterprise]

Pretty much what I think too. Dean has been his own worst enemy. He might as well have been wearing a "kick me here" sign on his butt. I can only summarize his entire campaign with the words of the great Bryant Gumble: (Insert the phrase here)

FYI

[Eva]

Lehane was behind the Bush DUI story, as well as the Wilson/Valerie Plame story, as well.

I cange the 'c' to a 'n'.

I saw that picture somewhere else......PSY203 textbook..wide spaced eyes, small cranium, low set ears. It was the example of a classic case of......Better not say it.
