GOP Ignores Clinton Like an "unperson?"

I love how Jonathan Martin of Politico puts this little dig in his article about how the GOP is totally ignoring Hillary to go after Obama.

Clinton, it seems, has been erased from the picture, Soviet-style. Republicans mostly act like she doesn't exist--an unusual turn of events considering her run of big-state victories and the fact that not so long ago Republican campaign plans were predicated on the idea of Clinton as the Democratic nominee.

Yes, he just used the Stalinist era idea of the unperson and all of the baggage that that idea implies to describe a sound GOP strategy. When you are in a race against two people that hate each other you go after the front runner and let the trailing person fight for themselves. If you go after both parties then you allow them to join forces with the common notion that they both dislike you. It is just common sense.

In any case I am pretty sure that the GOP do not want Hillary to be erased from history like Nikolai Yezhov or Leon Trotsky were by Stalin. In fact it seems that liberals are the ones who want Hillary to get the "ice pick treatment" for holding out and damaging the party. I just hate how liberals always go from an repulsive idea like Stalin wiping out hundreds of thousands of people (and erasing them from history) and then lumping it into the same sentence as Republican election tactics. At least they didn't compare the GOP to the Nazis.
