Disappointing that Dem candidates validate RW and GOP talking points against Democrats.

Guess what - Dems have NEVER BEEN weak on defense and weak on terror. No candidate should act like they are different from past nominees or in their party in that regard.

Guess what - Dems have NEVER been weak on values and indifferent to religious values. No candidate should act like they are different from past nominees or in their party in that regard.

Just because the Corporate media has beaten Democrats up over the years with RW tallking points they have turned into public perception, doesn't mean the candidates need to validate those lies.

It is called reifying - accepting the spin against Dems and repeating it in the hopes that you will be viewed as apart from your party on that issue.

Some of the Dem candidates speaking today are 'reifying' and reifying is ALWAYS wrong.

FIGHT the RW lie machine - do not VALIDATE it and do not PANDER to it.
