This will have to be it before heading off for the weekend. I repeat, only because apparently I must: “Frist Flip Flops” is a problem for a candidate with no distinctive record or fixed political views, regardless of the issue. (It is also true that this issue is important to some of the Republican party’s most active and committed voters). My conclusion about the political damage to Senator Frist doesn’t rest on a faulty impression that the universe of GOP voters are opposed to federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. Talented doctor, lousy politician.
