speaking of "afraid of power", Michelle, do you recall a few years back when the Dems were positively foaming at the mouth in their fear of Newt Gingrich? I even seem to recall a magazine cover with black headlines "The Gingrich that Stole Christmas".

It was one of those weekly news rags, possibly US Snooze & World Report, but I'm not sure. I just remember seeing it on the newsstands.

Yes, the Dems still have a simmering fear of Newt. I think your statement "Its obvious to me that there is a class of people here (all of whom have leanings to the right - not sure if that is a coincidence) that are afraid of power in other people." is a prime example of what jbe called the "smear by association".

You might want to work on more unique methods of smearing; at least ones that provoke some thinking on the part of readers.
