Bush campaigning in NJ: Beware, Rove is at it again [View All]

[lancdem]

NJ is not up for grabs (late polls in 2000 showed the race much closer than it turned out, a 16-point Gore win); Rove is doing exactly what he did in 2000 when he had Bush campaign in California right before the election in an attempt to make the public think Bush had a big enough lead he could afford to spend time in a solid blue state. It was designed to create the aura of inevitability so Gore supporters would think he had no chance and stay home.

Of course, we know now the race was much closer that, and the strategy failed. This is 2000 all over again, and Rove is back to his old tricks.

Don't fall for it!
