Hillary's lavender look
March 7, 2005 | By Charmaine Yoest
Viewed today along I-81 in Tennessee -- giant billboard, stark white lettering on a solid black background:
One nation under me -- God
Welcome to the red-states! A few miles further down the road, a giant aluminum cross, several stories high towered over the interstate.
This is unfamiliar territory for today's Democratic elites. On Meet the Press yesterday, NYTimes columnist Paul Krugman bemoaned the "radical right's attempted takeover of our country." Something tells me he would find these inspirational billboards sinister.
Watch for Hillary to trot out her old "politics of meaning" as another layer of her re-coloration strategy -- she's aiming for a nice shade of purple, hoping that a little red mixed in with her blue will give her a winning lavender hue.
