Clinton to Dems: Don't Fear Tough Issues - New York Times

CLICK TO READ: Clinton to Dems: Don't Fear Tough Issues - New York Times

An eerie parallel between tonight's episode of "West Wing" and Clinton's recent advise to Democrats. Maybe he's moonlighting as a producer:

'Clinton attributed Republicans' control of Congress to Democratic candidates' inability or unwillingness to ''stand up and be heard'' on issues that matter to people. For example, he said, Democrats too often are unwilling to talk about abortion because they're afraid of virulent reactions from anti-abortion groups.

''So how come we can't talk about it?'' he asked. ''Because we basically let political ads turn every player in this drama into a two-dimensional cartoon instead of a three-dimensional person.'''
