I imagine that by now some FReepers are getting tired of me posting a link to my essay The Splintering of the Democratic Party, but I said a year ago that this would happen.

I was a bit early in my prediction, but once the DLC Democrats (with Hillary's blessing) gang up on Dean and fire him, the Hard Left will walk.

That's a great essay, Publius -- no need to apologize for the link. I think the points about the 2004 election and how the Dems sealed their fate when they chose to not replicate JFK by going to the right on terrorism are pretty good.
