The RW gets to try to thread the needle tomorrow [View all]

How do they condemn Obama for "exploiting" the Aurora shooting by visiting Aurora tomorrow? He is the president, after all. Visiting Aurora is hardly an unusual act, by modern presidential comforter-in-chief standards.

(Perhaps they would prefer he get his picture taken flying over Aurora and then say somebody or another is doing a heck of a job.)

Hard to imagine a line of attack that doesn't make the attacker look despicable.

But they will hardly be able to resist criticizing the visit. It is their nature.
