The thing that struck me about Ned Lamont's victory celebration is the vigorous cheers that came when Lamont said that "stay the course" was not good policy. I've never known any nation to so embrace defeat and surrender as such a positive good as that bunch. Even if somebody is against the war, do they have to make the possibility of surrender such a joyful event?
Surely this mindset is way off on the margin.

I don't like the way the Iraq war is going.
Unfortunately, the muslims have convinced me that they must be defeated, no matter what the cost, no matter what the price (churchill I think referring to the nazis).

The fringe is taking over the dems - these folks think it's 1965 and the "kids" are all behind them... Ain't no kids - boomers grew up - and more are becoming conservative every day...

What I can't understand,is why it's so impossible for the "PEACE NOW" retards to see that even if this country did somehow become suicidal and lay down arms against terrorists,the terrorists wouldn't lay down arms! They'd just take quick advantage of our stupidity. Both sides have to put the weapons down for a war to end. They can't be that stupid. Are they that masochistic?
