Tough Democrats no longer an oxymoron?

"John Kerry is mounting the most aggressive presidential campaign a Democrat has run in decades." -- Cox News

And the strength of the campaign has caught the Bushies by surprise.

They have gotten so used to Democrats rolling over that they have forgotten how to deal with an opponent who acts like an opponent.

In most instances last week, the Kerry rebuttal was public record before the Bush charges aired, a much more aggressive approach than that of Bill Clinton's famed war room of 1992, where the objective was to merely respond to attacks during the same news cycle.

Now this is the kind of pre-emptive warfare I can get behind!
