i see it the opposite way. i generalized that many republican policies are cruel and dangerous, and then i cited one that i particularly think is cruel and dangerous and what specifically i think is cruel and dangerous about it. A roveian reduction goes in the other direction - from specific to general rather than general to specific.
it's just a pretty counterspin technique that Rove is particularly good at.
