And what are Hillary's legislative accomplishments? She may talk about them more, but she's so boring, no one's listening. I kind of mean that: IT'S THE FREAKIN' SENATE. They did this to Kerry too. Touting your legislative accomplishments doesn't work--the process is too group oriented, and they always come off sounding small and watered down. Watson was poorly prepared, and maybe that's the campaign's fault (or maybe he didn't read their talking points, or really did just blank). But this whole effort to find meaning in things that aren't meaningful is irritating--political coverage has become like sports coverage: people straining to find deeper significance to things that are either meaningless or far too complex to write a blurb about (i mean, give me some pages on how Obama's organization is able to kick ass time and again!).
