Remember 2004, when there was plenty to go after in the Bush Administration for a good democratic candidate?
First off, they trotted out John Kerry and John Edwards. That's the first problem, and perhaps the biggest.
Second, they decided to have Kerry go after the Iraq War. This was stupid because (1) Not everyone was vehemently opposed to the war at that point and (2) Kerry himself voted for the fucking thing in the first place.
This year is similar.
We will have an unlikeable candidate in Romney, and he wants to make his whole platform about ObamaCare and Abortion rhetoric.
