That’s why the left wins and why they will win in 2008.
Politics is war. It is a war of ideology. Does the most deserving candidate always win? Why not? Why haven’t the good second tier candidates broken 5%? The most efficient, aggressive, and yes sometimes inspiring candidate wins but that person has to be able to be ruthless when necessary. Too much severity is cruelty but excessive mercy is weakness. Balance is everything. The way a candidate runs a campaign is a good test as to how he will run the nation.
well, that’s fine but it’s not a bloodsport as you referred to it. We are lead by a nobler motive than the left.
