like Kerry's patriotism - or even cleland's. what i hadn't realized was the ploy of attacking YOUR OWN WEAKNESSES in the opposing candidate. it was very frustrating till i became aware of it. let's say you notice Hillary's incredibly high negatives. she can't be elected. so you then attack obama's electability! get it? everyone then gets distracted and tries to decide whether it's racist or not. a huge distraction from hillary's negatives. the whole campaign is run that way. hillary did practically nothing in the senate except make deals (that's why she was so popular) so *obama* did nothing - then you have his supporters going through urls and urls trying to discredit that charge. easy, see?
