Well, in a way this illustrates their way of thinking as well as anything I've seen in recent years. The Dems really don't understand free political debate such as we have here. They are used to a top-down approach of the leaders dictating the talking points, and those points are repeated until they start to ring of truthfulness (at least to them).

I guess they can't believe that regular folks like ourselves would engage in debate with each other to hone our positions and work out our ideas by subjecting them to intense scrutiny here. We must just be some kind of on-line focus group field-testing Karl Rove's latest talking points - because that is exactly they way they use the media - to test and disseminate talking points.
