One thing the Democrats have NOT learned from the Republicans is how to get the press to focus on an issue. EXAMPLE -- What would the Republicans do with this, if Clinton were President? The PRESIDENT says he doesn't have time to attend Memorial services for the soldiers that are coming home from Iraq, destroyed by HIS POLICIES...but he DOES have time for 113 fund-raisers to raise hundreds of millions of dollars to run against a (non-existent) opponent. If Gingrich were running this P.R. campaign, I bet he would...
- ARRANGE A SENATOR WITH PRE-APPROVED TALKING POINTS AT EVERY FUND-RAISER
- HAVE SOMEONE AT EVERY MEMORIAL SERVICE, ready to mug the incumbent with words like "callous" "crass" "unworthy" etc.
- BUY A HUNDRED THOUSAND BILLBOARDS with the message, "MISTER PRESIDENT -- CAN'T YOU POSTPONE ONE FUNDRAISER TO ATTEND JUST ONE SERVICEMAN'S FUNERAL? JUST ONE? SIGNED -- AMERICAN VETERANS
