Good point.
Didn't the Democrats in fact consult with some linguist in order to "better express their ideas?" First off, I don't think the Democrats lose because the public doesn't understand their ideas - in fact I think the public understands them all too well! But the "express yourself" rationale would be a good cover story for what you suggest. And isn't Michael Cooper's wife a big Hillary Clinton staffer? (What is it about these Democrats, always having their wives egging them on?)
OK, OK, I don't want to start sounding like a tinfoil hat type. But you raise an interesting point. And a causal consumer of MSM news and nothing else would have a TOTALLY different view of all of this. Is it relevant at all to know about Cooper's wife? More importantly, would it be relevant to the MSM if the shoe were on the other foot, and the wife of a columnist writing about a Democrat were, say, a staffer for Tom Delay or Rick Santorum? The answer jumps out at you immediately. All I ask for is logical consistency - which is a ridiculous expectation in politics, I know.
You know, smearing Billy Dale was OK by them. Making Linda Tripp's life a living hell was A-OK. Really, remember the constant drumbeat of scandal surrounding the Clintons? Is there a Bush administration cabinet member of high level official who has been accused of shady land deals, abusing FBI files, etc.? I don't EVER want to go back to that.
I WAS a lifelong Democrat - that's just the way it was. I voted for Clinton, twice. But at least he finally showed me that the Democrat party of the past is as dead as Zell Miller says it is. So I am in good company as a FORMER Democrat.
