Tuesday, November 02, 2004You've gotta give the Bushies credit for the way they did OH, however this finally pans out. Mickey Kaus was right. Too much exposure was potential poison for either candidate. So Bush went to MI and WI, where he was going to lose, but simultaneously got a lower profile in Ohio and forced Kerry to divert resources. I don't know, but I'm guessing that at least some level, the moves on Michigan forced the labor movement to divert resources too, a double whammy for Kerry who needed someone to make his case and needed it especially not to be Kerry. The end result? Kerry got exposure in OH and spent money elsewhere while Bush laid low and waited for the votes to be counted.
