Why Senator Reid is the perfect example for other Democrats
Advertisements [?]
While it is early in the new congress, Senator Reid and Sen Boxer have shown what many DUers have known all along, "You offer no quarter and no apologies to your opposition. You take the fight to them. Even if it means risking loss." So far I think Reid is hitting about .800. He's got the repukes in a defensive retreat-style mode. As many concerns as I had about the Nevada Senator when he was chosen (anti-choice, etc) I must say I am thrilled at his strategy which is attack, attack, attack.
This should be a lesson fo any Democrat running. Get out front. Attack early, defend your position briefly and attack again. Kinda like what former Pres Clinton did in 92.
