This is attributed as a front-page item in the Wall Street Journal, but I can't get at it without paying for it. I got it from the Volokh Conspiracy.

(1) "Neutralize Bush's national security edge by fanning doubts about his Iraq policy."

(2) "Craft economic attacks that can work even if the economy keeps improving."

(3) "Dent the president's reputation for honesty and competence."

(4) "Mobilize Democratic partisans in 17 states that Mr. Bush barely won or lost in 2000."

(5) "And maneuver around the new campaign-finance law by redirecting now-banned big donations away from the Democratic Party to a new set of groups that will coordinate attacks on Mr. Bush."

Not a lot of surprises here. No doubt much scorn will be heaped on this, but just for fun, let's watch over the next few months and see what major actions and statements from Democratic candidates and their media buttmonkeys do NOT fall under one of these categories.
