"The Dems always find a way to shoot themselves in the foot."
And then the GOP wins. And then the GOP enacts many of the same types of legislation that the Dems would have enacted -- Out of control budgets, no drilling in ANWR or coastal areas, liberal judges, more centralized control of things like education, more bureaucracy, etc., etc., etc.
The Dems don't have to worry about being Dems as much anymore because the GOP has taken on that job.

Bingo! We get forced into supporting the GOP and then get stuck with Lindsey Graham and John McCain telling us how "moderate" we need to be.
I hope a real conservative runs against Graham in his next primary. Tool.
