2004

May 29 -- More Mean Republicans And Helpless Democrats

• May 27 -- “Willie Horton” Republicans Rough Up “Softball” Democrats
In Adam Clymer’s view, Republicans win by using “everything from Willie Horton's image to the suggestion that Senator Max Cleland, who lost both legs and an arm in Vietnam, was unconcerned about national security.” Meanwhile, Democrats “lack the killer instinct that it takes to sell blunt, demagogic messages.”
