It just seems like a way to attack the opponent, in most cases.
You're confusing the spin with the reality.

Sure, opponents will say he flip-flopped, while supporters will say he's thoughtful. That's why the spin needs to be ignored, and why I make a determination on my own, using, as KSig RC points out, the same tools and clues I would to determine credibility in any situation.

Maybe I get it right, maybe I get it wrong, but at least I have no one to blame but myself.
