permalinkI just got an email from Howard Dean. I have to give the Dems this. They know how to elicit a reaction among their base and how to capitalize on it. I know that many pundits of late have made beans about the Dems outraising the GOP online. My theory: The Dems have a hot button issue that evokes emotion and they are willing (some would say conniving) to monetize that issue as best they can.
See for yourself. Right now McCain taking heat from the left for being solid on Iraq. He's almost a lightning rod for the left's pure animus about the war. Why?
Because secretly would love to vote for the guy if he would just denounce Bush like he usually does. Instead he's standing on principle.
Unfortunately for McCain - he's the punching bag - not Romney or Rudy.
