"Democratic Party" is the brand name of a recognized political
organization, as such it is a noun phrase. Intentionally
misrepresenting the corporate name is a mind game. I would guess
that Rove wants to separate "spreading Democracy" from the
"Democratic Party".
Is it wrong to change the name of a political opponent as a way to
'dis' them?
Hmmm? President Butch?
