Give em hell LD,
I know that you are enjoying this, but please remember that the Republican Party never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity.

Remember this solecism from PJ O'Rourke:
Democrats are also the party of government activism, the party that says government can make you richer, smarter, taller and get the chickweed out of your lawn. Republicans are the party that says government doesn´t work, and then they get elected and prove it.
- On the Bandwagon / Parliament of Whores (1991)

Bush has coopted most traditional Democratic campaign issues in domestic policy, as Blair did in Britain to the Tories. This has left them struggling. This election will determine whether they continue as a viable party, or become a large representation of the Greens.
