Do you think DT's attempt to capitalize on the. . .

. . .actions of the unhinged Routh will earn him even a 10th of a point?

I don't.

All the noise may drown out meaningful reporting for a couple days, but at this point, I think it's all about getting our vote out.

His support may erode a little more -- there are signs that it is -- but I really don't see any noise they make earning him new support or strengthening weak support. When some DT crap sucks in the media -- and there will be something new daily -- best to just focus on other things -- ideally phone banking or something. Don't give him the gift of our attention, even our attention condemning him. He thrives on it.

uses hateful rhetoric, and that should make him a less sympathetic character. With the rhetoric the way his is, he should not be blaming others.
