Click on my link of the day (or below) for an interesting take on the GOP’s Hillary obsession...the article by Michael Sherer in today’s Salon captures the essence of the GOP nightmare scenario and the innovative way they use it as a campaign hair raiser (the return of Frankenstein or Godzilla) and a smart marketing tool to raise money and scare the vaunted GOP base into fearful action.
If the anti-Hillary e-mail from around the country that finds me is any indication, what is repeated in more respectable circles becomes downright surreal at the lower depths -- witching tales are repeated and revised and recycled and shared among the frightened faithful. It’s why I raise an skeptical eyebrow anytime I hear a pundit raise the “Hillary is a polarizing figure” canard regarding her candidacy. Polarizing for whom? should be a required follow-up question for such lazy journalistic slop.
