Democrats Offer Lines of Attack for '08 Race
By RAYMOND HERNANDEZ, The New York Times, July 26, 2005
COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 25 - In the wake of terrorist attacks abroad, a procession of potential Democratic presidential candidates raised sharp questions on Monday about the Republican leadership's handling of national security.
The Democrats, including Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, also sharply criticized Republican fiscal policies, denouncing the rising national debt after the booming economy of the years when Bill Clinton was president. They spoke at a meeting of the Democratic Leadership Council, a prominent group of moderates who helped send Mr. Clinton to the White House in 1992.
The gathering here in Ohio, one of the most-contested states in last year's election, offered a glimpse of what may be the line of attack that Democrats will employ against Republicans between now and 2008.
