Witness the breakdown in 2008 now!

Quoted from many different mainstream news articles:

Nevertheless, many people have devised various theories, including stories of voters in largely Democratic counties in Florida whose votes were changed for Bush, phantom voters in Ohio and exit polls showing John Kerry in the lead that were truer than the final tally. Off the record, many Democratic strategists dismiss such allegations, but they also know such resentment can be channeled for political use in the future.

"Sometimes God tests you," Kerry told the crowd at H20, a restaurant on the Potomac waterfront, according to an aide. "I'm a fighter, and I've come back before.

"I'm not in denial. Reality hit me," Carville said. "Let's take the greatest morality story of all -- we're born again,"

"We have to treat the disease, not the symptom," Carville said. "The purpose of a political party is to win elections, and we're not doing that."

"The party needs a narrative," he said. adding later that one possibility would to become "an aggressively reform, anti-Washington, anti-business-as-usual party."

(Maybe we just didn't push the right hate buttons last time... )

It seems that anyone fool enough to favor the re-election of the president is by definition a God-bothering, pulpit-pounding Armageddon-artist, enslaved by ancient texts and prophecies and committed to theocratic rule. I was instructed in last week's New York Times that this was the case, and that the Enlightenment had come to an end, by no less an expert than Garry Wills, who makes at least one of his many livings by being an Augustinian Roman Catholic.

More later when time...

They just don't seem to be getting it, do they? Harold Meyerson had a column in the Post today and he said:

In large ways and small, campaign 2004 was marked by unprecedented Democratic unity. That's one reason why the defeat feels so shattering: The whole team was on the field, working together as well as if not better than ever before.

He doesn't seem to realize that THAT is their problem. When they're ALL screaming Leftists, it doesn't leave much room for moderates to get behind them.

I think it all comes down to the typical liberal mantra..."blame anyone but yourself."
