"[Lee] Atwater raised to a political art form the tactic of using wedge issues to win the presidency for Republicans in the 1980s. Gingrich followed that example but added new sophistication to the GOP’s use of such race-tinged issues as crime and welfare to win control of the House in 1994."
I LOVE that. So crime and welfare are automatically race-tinged? How does that work?

It seems that if you are so rude as to point the truth these days, you have automatically offended a liberal principle.
