We lost in November because corruption ran amuck in the Republican Party, because Americans have a brief attention span, because the Dems were smart and ran candidates who were conservative enough to win but opposed to Bush policies on key issues like Nafta/Cafta and Iraq, because the Bush Administration did not perform as well as the American people expected they should and because Republicans in general lost their way fiscally embodied by bridges to nowhere and fits of pique about those bridges to nowhere.
That's the unvarnished truth.
You think the dems aren't even more corrupt?
