Obama backer Mark Kleiman is impressed by his candidate’s ability to turn attacks by his opponents, such as the recent pronouncement by Hillary Clinton’s proxies in South Carolina that putting a black man at the top of the ticket would be political suicide, to his advantage.
Mark observes, “There may be something more important in a campaign than the capacity to counter-punch, but I can’t think what it is.” Perhaps having opponents say really, really stupid things?
