Denise Ross' column in the Rapid City Journal regarding Senator Daschle's dissonant statements on weapons of mass destruction is garnering attention from the blogosphere beyond South Dakota. Instapundit has a post on the piece, as does NRO's Jonah Goldberg. The Daschle v. Thune blog also has more excellent analysis on Daschle's schizoid politics, which you can access HERE and HERE.
UPDATE: Power Line weighs in too.
ANOTHER UPDATE: The Man Without Qualities blog has commentary, asking if Tom Daschle thinks South Dakota voters are too dim to see through this ploy.
Anthony Perez-Miller writes that Daschle's comments are "transparently opportunistic."
Pejmanesque says Tom Daschle is the latest afflictee of "Kerryitis," a condition "that strikes Democratic Senators who are trying to have it both ways when it comes to describing their position on Iraq."
The blog "Ace of Spades HQ" writes:
Jeepers! You'd think [Daschle] was running for re-election in a Republcian leaning state this year or somethin'!And that's part of our problem with Democrats. It's not just that they're anti-war.
It's that they're willing to claim to be pro-war or anti-war as political circumstances dictate. They don't have a position on the war; they have, rather, positionings, designed solely for electoral gain.
The blog "Lapsus calami" writes: "Of course, Tom is in re-election mode, so he's probably just saying what South Dakotans want to hear."
