A Harbinger of Things to Come
The idea that Senator Clinton is an angry woman who didn’t handle menopause all that well is probably going to become a regular attack throughout her Presidential candidacy in 2008. She is a liberal with little real experience. Why can’t that be used?
Because it isn’t simple enough to make 15 second sound bites on talk shows. And reporters won’t dig down enough on a story unless they have a good headline to support. So give them something ridiculous but simple. They will put it in the headline and not point out the holes until paragraph nine.
This is a disease in the bloodstreams of both parties. Remember 2004? Kerry was a coward; Bush is a retard, yada yada yada. This is why campaigns are boring.
