13. Letting their undelings do the dirty work won't work for the Repubs this time

not when it comes to race and/or gender.

In Kerry's case, where he got swiftboated with lies, it pissed people off, sure, but how many of the voters are war heroes like Kerry? Very very few, so they can't understand it enough to know what he must have felt like.

In Obama or Hillary's case, if race or gender remarks come from ANYWHERE, how many voters are women or people of color? Millions upon millions, and it will offend THEM directly....and they'll take it straight to the voting booth.
