An embarrassment of riches

That’s how the Economist characterizes the issues on which Karl Rove can work over John F’n Kerry based on his Senate career. The list includes my favorite angle of attack (emphasized here):

Mr Rove has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to tagging the senator as a tax-and-spend paleoliberal who believes in coddling drug addicts, abolishing the death penalty and protecting partial-birth abortion. Mr Kerry has offended against Americans' God-given right to cheap petrol by advocating a 50-cent increase on the tax on it; he has also called for steep cuts in funding for the FBI and restrictions on the CIA.

When you’re sitting on the Ketchup Fortune, you don’t mind the extra expense when your driver tops off the Suburban.
