August 29, 2008: With the revelations of the internal Clinton memos in this month's Atlantic--especially the Mark Penn memos that encouraged Hillary to own the term American and emphasize Obama's lack of "American roots," it becomes very easy to believe that some of this was deliberate.
The February 2009 AMERICAN PROSPECT has a story about Darcy Burner, who lost her election in Washington state but had a hand in bringing the responsible plan to the attention of other candidates.
"Burner ticked another item off her list of positives: her "Responsible Plan" to end the war in Iraq, which she created with the help of retired Army general Paul Eaton and released in March 2008, early in the campaign season." The article then describes how the plan was pushed by the bloggers, written about by the MSM, and adopted by other Dem candidates.
