Rhetoric in politics

There’s been a lot of ink spilled lately on the different rhetorical strategies of the campaigns this year, and so I’ve been “picking the brain” of a colleague of mine, Gracia Grindal, who is our professor of rhetoric. It’s been a really interesting and fun conversation, but not one I can easily capture and put in a blog. Here, however, is a useful piece up at dailyKos that reiterates some of what I’ve been learning from her.
