Harry Reid's six page memo on the elections strategy to regain control of the Senate is right up Karl Rove's alley--fighting on National Security ground.

Titled "Real Security," the political document calls for staged town hall events at military bases, weapons factories, National Guard units, fire stations and veterans posts.

"Ensure that you have the proper U.S. and state flags at the event, and consider finding someone to sing the national anthem and lead the group in the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of the event," the battle plan states.

There's a certain delicious irony in this memo--his inexperience with military affairs is evident by the fact that he has no idea that you can't stage political events at military installations, but more importantly, anybody with a minimum of military education knows that you don't fight battles on the ground the enemy has chosen for you.
