Here, the WH spokesman was given the softest pitch he will ever receive and what does he do, he ducks. Our guys are friggin' cowards and wimps and if they don't learn how to fight they will be history. The other side cheats, lies and steals and our side won't even fight back.

No,no,no! We don't want to destroy Kerry before he gets the nomination.

We made that mistake with Dean.

No,no,no! We don't want to destroy Kerry before he gets the nomination. We made that mistake with Dean.

Dean destroyed Dean with help from the media who couldn't ignore the implosion. I think a better strategy would be to encourage a longer dem primary season. We should be helping Dean now, if possible, and hurting Kerry so there is more incentive for them to trash each other. It also diverts their money defending themselves from each other. What we'd love is a wide open contest through the summer. Unfortunately, its already over and Kerry will get it.

Scott McClellan actually works for the People of the United States, not the President. He is supposed to be informing the public. Clinton never followed this. His spokespeople took cheap shots left and right at his political foes.

The President needs a campaign manager to answer those kind of argumentative questions and soon.
