Regular readers of this blog know what I think of idiot Democrats who make the party's internal struggles public by blabbing to reporters such as Adam Nagourney of The New York Times. Why repeat myself on the subject of these fools just because Nagourney has written his ninety thousandth "Democratic Candidate Screws Up, Say Democrats" article?

But I'd like something explained to me: These Democratic blabbermouths say it's a mistake for Kerry to talk about "national security" -- which is, we are told, "Mr. Bush's strongest turf." Why is it a mistake? All we've heard for the last month is how brilliant Karl Rove is for repeatedly attacking his opponents' strengths. If it's done right -- and if some of these Democrats will give Kerry a little backup -- why shouldn't this strategy work for Kerry, too?
