Katrina Swett, at tonight's debate (any errors in transcription mine):
"Annie, you have cast yourself as the very, very progressive candidate, and have been warmly supported by the far left progressive movement. You policy positions bear this out. Your strong opposition to nuclear power as part of our energy future. Your insistence that President Obama withdraw American troops from Afghanistan immediately. Your support, as we've just talked about, for higher taxes, for example, a state income tax here in New Hampshire. I know these are sincere and deeply held beliefs, but they are out of step with the majority of voters. In a year when everyone understands that the country's moving back toward the center, and away from the more left, progressive point of view, if you were to become the nominee, would you try to distance yourself from your own positions, or are you hoping that your Republican opponent and perhaps the voters would simply overlook them?"
Between the UL piece, the Pledge Politicking that came out of nowhere, and this quote, the strategy going into the final days of the primary is in clearer focus.
Morning Update: I'm not the only one who noticed that Swett's 11th hour plan is to attract undeclareds by beating up on the left. And adding: It's taken Glenn Beck and Co. two years of language framing to try to turn "progressive" into the dirty word that the right has made out of "liberal," but last night was the first time, in NH or elsewhere, I've seen a Democrat employ that strategy in a Democratic primary. Note the careful repetition from her statement: "the very, very progressive candidate," "the far left progressive movement," "the more left, progressive point of view."
