It is all about Slick Willy's response to Finkelstein's "Stop Her Now" anti-HRC campaign.
Apparently, Clinton felt the need to publicly out Finkelstein's sexual preference as a way to mitigate whatever credibility and traction the campaign might have. Chrenkoff, in his rapier style, thrusts right to the heart of these tactics:
Clinton, of course, can't point his finger and just say "he's a homosexual"
because these things are only supposed to matter to those homophobic
Republicans, and he can't say "he's a Republican homosexual" because that would
be a bit too tacky and too obvious, but he can always say "he's a self-loathing
homosexual", which 1) has the advantage of saying "he's a Republican homosexual"
(yeeks!) without actually saying it, 2) aims to discredit Finkelstein in the
eyes of those "bigoted right-wingers", 3) for those on your own side who worship
"authenticity", it indicates the biggest sin of all - fakiness, and 4) since all
real homosexuals are left-wing, it casts Finkelstein in the role of a sell-out,
betrayer and a renegade - an Uncle Tom (coming soon, a new classic of American
literature: "Uncle Tom's Log Cabin Republicans").In the new Democrat strategy book you no longer need to kill the messenger, you only have to out him.
You should be reading Chrenkoff everyday.
