Their are some huge cracks in the Dem party. The Dean war is just beginning, and it's not gonna be pretty for a lot of reasons. I'm not sure she will be able to be the healer and re-take the mantle.
Heaven help us if she succeeds in actually putting the party together without a huge fight.
The best news I see is that she is really not nearly as skillfull in playing to mid-America as Slick was, no...she's actually bad at it so far, and I'm not sure mid-America is ready to be fooled by a second Clinton pretending to be conservative.
If the lefties keep control of the party, they will probably pick Kucinich and Sharpton in '08.
Then we can run Donald Rumsfield and Condoleeza Rice in a walkover.
