Bad connotation? Not any more than "Normandy" does.

What utter absurdity. Blitzkrieg is a WW2 term for Axis army attack method. Is it akin to comparing someone to Hitler? Not in the least. It's not been an uncommon term at all. It's talking about Romney's heavy-duty attack method.

Good lord. That blog is an absolutely pathetic attempt to diss Axelrod with a beyond absurd attempt to paint a word as meaning something it doesn't.

Oh: and that blogger, aside from purchasing a dictionary, should probably go figure out Axelrod's religion. Duh.
