"If Americans think you want to protect and enhance their retirement security, they'll back you," [Frank Luntz] wrote. "If they think you want to reduce their benefits, for ANY reason, they'll oppose you." Now in a sane world the fact that Republicans DO want to reduce benefits would be enough to doom this enterprise right then and there. But instead we'll get months more worth of kabuki in which the GOP tries to explain why their benefit cuts aren't really benefit cuts. http://yglesias.typepad.com/matthew/2005/02/when_is_a_cut_n.html --
