A Great Piece on Obama and the Democrats

Peter Beinart--one of my favorite lefties--has a smart post here about Obama crossing the Rubicon. Alea iacta est.

  1. Good column, but I would say the reason the Dems won in '06 was the constant, unrelenting attacks by leftists in the press and popular culture and Bush's failure to respond.

  2. Couldn't disagree more. GOP lost in 06 because of they were more interested in retaining power than using it.

  3. Good point. I'd say we could probably come up with a half dozen more reasons why the Republicans got destroyed in '06 and each would be equally valid.
