| Hat tip to RCP Barone is one of the smartest political writers I read and very insightful. In this article he exposes the Democrats for everything they are not. They are not the party of ideas and their rhetoric had to be toned down lest they alienate a larger portion of the electorate. I have chastised the Republican leadership (on these pages and via email) for their apparent appeasement of the Democrats in the Senate. Maybe (just maybe) I was wrong and they let the Dems trot out all the conspiracies and accusations they could muster. Seems now that they have punched themselves out, example is Bab's Boxer trying to claim there IS a Democratic plan but no one has been paying attention. Sorry Bab's after the Condi confirmation and now the Bolton dog/pony/donkey show nobody cares what plan you have they just don't want you or your party. The money phrase from Barone is: "Republicans who had a plan beat Democrats whose plan was a blank piece of paper." P.S. I can't wait until 2006 |
