The New York Times profile of Howard Wolfson rings true now that we’ve seen the deplorable campaign being run by the Clintons.
In many ways, Mr. Wolfson’s bare-knuckle brand of politics is reminiscent of the tactics of Karl Rove, President Bush’s chief political adviser — and a man whose skills Mr. Wolfson admits to admiring. While other Democrats tend to run campaigns that largely focus on issues, Mr. Wolfson is more than willing to make an opponent’s character the central theme of a race.
Is this the genius who decided to run an ad in South Carolina basically saying Barack Obama supported Reagan’s agenda just becuase Obama said Reagan had a transformative presidency?
This kind of crap will continue to dominate our politics until the voters finally reject candidates like Hillary Clinton to hire hatchet men like Wolfson.
