You mean of course the Double Secret Campaign....;)

I read that article and was stunned to see Robert Rubin was one of those suggesting Kerry couldn't announce his economic plan until after he won.

Is this what the dems are reduced to--a convention that robotically nominates someone who doesn't share their values, and a candidate from the party that "trusts the American people" or whatever, yet refuses to reveal its plans for leading?

How ironic--Kerry tried to bring down Nixon who had a "secret plan" for ending the war. And here he is, with a "secret plan" for ending the economy...

LOL! How true!

History shows that Nixon intended to negotiate with the Communists. History also shows that American journalism was functioning as representatives of the Communists, but with no authority to grant any concessions on behalf of the Communists.

"Nixon claims he has a secret plan" was just the way that journalism attempted bully Nixon into the classic mistake of publicly negotiating with people who cannot give you what you want and need.

"Nixon Claims He Has Secret Plan" headlines were simply journalism's attempt to force Nixon into a preemptive surrender which would have doomed his candidacy.

Why Broadcast Journalism is
Unnecessary and Illegitimate
