If you look at the recent past, I can’t agree. We did well in 2002 and had a historic win in 2004. We controlled the Presidency, House and Senate. Morality was the number one issue according to exit polling in 2004. How we got to this sorry state in a span of 2 years is nothing other than a dereliction of duty by the President and our Congressional leaders.
It is a mistake to underestimate one’s opponent. In 06 Dems had a better election strategy. That’s all. And some of it is reflected in this article’s analysis. It looks to me like disinformation from the other side.
