Reckless driving? Or well planned trap?

On Medicare Offensive        “ Democratic strategists were certain that, with Paul Ryan on the Republican ticket, Medicare had become a better issue than ever for them. How do we know this? Democrats said so. Ryan is the author of a Medicare reform plan that Democrats insist would “end Medicare as we know it.” That’s their mantra. Mitt Romney, who picked Ryan as his vice presidential running mate last week, has a similar plan of his own. Moving quickly, the Romney campaign packaged that two-step response into a crisp, 30-second TV ad that began being aired yesterday.  The campaign plans a large buy with the ad, particularly in swing states. I'd like to think that Romney-Ryan "set a trap," as do the Weekly Standard, but I suspect it was a case of the Obama campaign ( probably the most inept, tone-deaf campaign in history)    being guilty of reckless driving.  Nevertheless, the ad is brilliant, and hooray for them for running it.  I don't think McCain would have. ”
