Kondrake is right about the meanness of kerry/edwards putting the spotlight on lesbianism in Cheney's family. But what neither kerry nor edwards understands is that swing voters won't care and the conservative base is not going to hold that against Cheney personally, much less hold it against Bush. It's just another desperate tactic from the democrats, an impotent one. So I don't see any reason for Kondrake to get himself in a lather over it.
I guess the feedback on Edward's talking about Cheney's daughter's personal life was good for the Dems, hence the bizarre, detailed explanation of 'Vice President Cheney's daughter being a lesbian' by Kerry, out of the blue, for no reason except to really bring it HOME to the three people in America who don't already know about it.
