Her virulent anti-semitism didn't turn you off first?

Peter, is it just me, or does it seem like every time the Democrats catch lightning in a bottle, they break the bottle?

A grass-roots agent drops right in their laps, one that by far comes across as more human and real than anything they could create -- and they destroy her with packaging.

She would have been far more valuable over the long run if they hadn't burned her out and used her up. She hit her sixteenth minute about, oh, 16 minutes in. Her handlers have devalued her as a human being -- she is now a symbol. "Cindy Sheehan" the human is long gone and deceased. Her bones are now in a modern day Ark, being carted around by "The greater cause."

Lesson: when you start treating your clients as objects and props, your message becomes self-parody.
