I thought his Powerline peice yesterday was a good strategy. A little preemption to nip questions about former clients in the bud. But that does not resolve the this particular issue.
This could be an opportunity for Fred to explain “why” he supported McCain Feingold, he was a lobbyist, he knew how the game was played.
That and I’ve been reading reports all over FR over the last 5 months about how “Wvangelicals love Rudy” and there is no way Rudy is to the Right of Fred on Abortion yet Evangelicals support rudy over Fred?

I think we also need to keep in mind that FDT is being extremely careful in how he responds to everything. Some responses may be able to be construed as “campaign” oriented. If that happens, a large chunk of the $$ he has raised as “testing the waters” would need to be forfeited (returned?) under orders by the FEC.
Both national parties would like to see this happen.
