Epiphany

Someone got a wakeup call at the New York Times:

But the edgier and more negative tone coming from the president’s re-election is highlighting another issue. Successful campaigns tell positive stories even while they are in knife fights, and even as it steps up an effort to define Mr. Romney on its terms, the White House is working to make a positive case for Mr. Obama, one built around themes of fairness and security.

Judging by the difficulties he has had selling his policies and himself for the last three years, going positive in an effective way could prove to be more challenging for Mr. Obama than going negative.

Ya think?

This campaign isn't going to be scorched earth. It's going to be Peshtigo Fire, especially if Obamacare gets kicked to the curb.
