Bill's Notebook

Watching the Olberman/Maddow wailing over Obama’s spending freeze proposal.  I am especially enjoying the Republican glee over their supposed victory on this front.  The Republicans do not see the trap that has been set for them in the midterms.

From Go strategy – “Reduction: Placing a stone far enough into the opponent’s area of influence to reduce the amount of territory he/she will eventually get, but not so far in that it can be cut off from friendly stones outside.”

The midterms will be a major setback for the Republicans.
