I'm living in New York at the moment, and so I guess that makes Hillary my Senator. So I'm a little annoyed that she trotted out the old hooker killin' line attacking violent videogames (and in particular Grand Theft Auto) today.

I'm annoyed by what she said, but what really ticks me off is the fact that it's a 100% politically moronic thing to do.

Look, you can take the perfectly respectible position that young children should not play violent video games. You can call for game retailers to be more responsible in who they sell to, and to parents for what they buy for their kids. But seriously, don't go and replay the whole partental advisory scene over again. The only hope the Democrats have as a party is cultivating support among young americans. Attacking our culture with right-wing talking points isn't going to help you out.
