Reply #36: Exactly correct - they will label ANY candidate [View All]

and repeat it on the rightwing media echo chamber of talk and columns until it resonates. So who has the ability to work past/through it - that is the question. Gore did (he won - they had to pull some shenanigans to win it for Bush). Someone else can.

I agree - worrying now, about how a candidate will be labeled by the right and their media echo chamber is pointless. Just look at Max Cleland. They are going to do it - and to some extent they will be effective.

But others have one despite the onslaught - and probably more than one of the current field can do it against it as well. Shoot for that rather than worrying about the onslaught - which is inevitable against any dem.
