Every time Democrats and progressives speak out about George W. Bush’s spying on Americans without mentioning that he may also be spying on Democrats, they’re playing into Karl Rove’s “National Security Frame” and actually strengthening Republican electoral chances in November. To short-circuit this, Democrats need to invoke the ghost of Richard Nixon.
Every time the media – or a Democrat – uses the phrase “Illegal Immigration” they are promoting one of Karl Rove’s most potent Republican Party frames.
