The last refuge of the defeated
The Spectator ^ | January 3, 2004 | Mark Steyn

"Bush vs Dean makes it plain: a guy who wants to take the war to the terrorists and the states who sponsor, harbour and train them versus a guy who thinks it’s about, if anything, liaising with Interpol and serving injunctions."

Why do Democrats lose elections? It’s the stupidity, stupid! That’s the trouble with the electorate: Not Our Kind Of People.

As trenchant a summary of the Democrats' electoral problem as I've ever seen.

They believe all of us are their intellectual inferiors. Their's is a toxic "misunderestimation" of the American people.

And it is why they will not only lose in 2004 -- they will get squashed like a bug.

Deservedly so.

Thanks for posting this! One of my favorite passages:

The trouble is the unDean is different everywhere you look. In the Granite State, Laura and co. reckon the unDean is Kerry. In Iowa, it’s Dick Gephardt, the soporific 1970s union throwback. In Arizona, it’s General Wesley Clark, the pantomime stalking-horse entered by the Clintons. In South Carolina, it seems to be the Revd Al Sharpton, the distinguished race-baiter. And all these states are voting in the next month, which means, no matter how well he does, each unDean could be undone by some other unDean a couple of days later.
