Gaffe is in the eye of us Salon types.
I'm very disappointed. I was hoping to see Ari make a big dummy out of himself, but in true GOP style, he glossed over his own ignorance with a slickness that I'm sure left most viewers thinking it not particularly unreasonable or any big deal that he didn't know the soldier's name. He's an important guy; you can't expect him to have every little detail top-of-mind.
Would that the Democrats carried themselves with such corporate confidence when cornered. Sad to say, but I wish they'd watch this a few times and take some notes.
(I'm kind of curious why the marketing types in the GOP decided to that recycle the "freedom" bit might work this time around. Sounds idiotic to me, but what do I know?)
