I mean, of course, the Democrats, particularly the DSCC and DLCC.
There are two very good posts on open left (here and here) discussing the losses in the special elections in Virginia and Ohio yesterday.
The basic point is that the candidates, and the DCCC which backed them made no mention of the war.
These guys are still running away from ending the war. The Democrats took control of congress on this issue, despite these guys ducking covering on this issue in 2006, and they are doing it again.
It’s the war stupid, no matter how much these guys, largely ex-Clintonistas, want to make it the 1992 election.
No money to the DSCC or DCCC. When I give, it’s only to candidates who are clear and vocal about their opinion on the war. It does not have to be the centerpiece of their campaign, but it has to be out there and clearly visible.
‘Nuff said.
