I've joined the bloggers on the Blogging of the President site. I still am not sure if Chris Lydon is a Republican or a Democrat and why this site is set up, but I'm hoping this will become more clear to me soon. Is it so that "The transformation" I'm reading so much about indicates a pro-Kerry stance?
In the meantime, I'm reading some outdated books on presidential campaigns (Dan Nimmo and Gary C. Byrne). They're quite interesting in their theories and give me a lot of insight in the strategies of the candidates. What was the most amusing though, is the transformation of a race-term: apparently, in 1970 it was okay to say 'Negro' (with a capital N mind you), while now that is seen as an outrage. Anyway, I thought it was striking.
