Obama has more sense than to overplay the "I'm not a weenie" angle.  Those Democrats who tried it not only looked pathetic, but also validated the Republican chest puffing.

Obama has an ace up his sleeve in the form of a very tall, very dead, old Arab.

Actually, he said back in 2008 he would launch a strike against a high value target in Pakistan with out alerting the Pakistanis first.  cause quite a minor row, we had a thread on it.  Tim started it and called it irresponsible.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Would be even better if he launched the strike without warning them that he would launch it without warning them.

I'm not sure I buy the equivalence with what you've listed and the Democrats as appeasing socialists who want the poor to be dependant and didn't really want bin Laden dead.

On the other hand I don't think Democrats are weak or don't do attacks (I think Horton was first raised in the primary).  I just think they're often really shit at politics.  Many of them come across to me as pretty arrogant technocrats who just wish they could get on with running the country as they so clearly deserve.  They're like less charming ENArques <_<

Yi.  I thought I'd quoted him :blush:

Oh, he's just repeating Conservative talking points.  He's starting to shift into Hans territory lately.

Democrats have been engaged in a non-stop rhetorical war about fat cats and greedy millionaires and billionaires and out of touch Republicans who own thousands of vacation homes and special tax loopholes for the rich, etc., etc.

Stating the truth is hardly a rhetorical war.  :mellow:

Dukakis was a pansy for that stuff. The ACLU thing, Willie Horton... he could have and should have fought back instead of taking it like  a little bitch.

Story of the Democrats;  taking the High Road just means you've got farther to drop when the Republicans put you through the guard rail.
It wasn't the Republicans who used electoral fraud and media stoogery to win the 1960 election.
LOL, and Nixon was the height of political honesty.
It's hard to blame a guy whose enemies will stop at nothing to destroy him.

That's why it's difficult to blame Nixon's enemies.  The man would stop at nothing to destroy them.

I dunno.  Both parties are in need of some moderation.  The Republicans seem to be determined to bring back serfdom and to ensure that that all money and power is concentrated in the hands of a new aristocracy.  The Democrats are equally determined to ensure that nobody rises too high so, and that all the power is concentrated in the hands of a new aristocracy.

They went after him first.
