I think Katharine DeBrecht makes a very good point here. In spite of their success in hurting Bush's poll numbers by perpetually being negative and blaming him for all the problems in the world, Democrats have huge structural, financial, and leadership problems.

It really sounds like they are headed to a major crack-up, especially if what's being said about Howard Dean compiling dirt on Harry Reid is true. Hillary will probably try to broker a temporary truce between them so this doesn't blow up prior to the mid-term elections and paint the Dems as sleazy, but it does sound like there's some real animosity there.

(P.S. DeBrecht is right that her next book will get the libs plenty mad. Check out the cover on Amazon.)

Imagine the sorry state of a party that had to have Mr. Kaine give the response to the State of the Union address.

"Despite President Bush's weak poll numbers"


THIS IS A BIG FAT LIE - Rasmussen has the president's numbers at 51% - which is higher now than when he was re-elected in 2004.

They think if they say it often enough people will believe it - don't believe it - and tell every radio and TV person you know - THEY'RE WRONG - and give them the correct number.

I think Howlin' Howard more accurately reflects the moonbat base. They are mad as hornets at the Dim Senate leadership for not being able to filibuster "Alioto."

How and since when did Jack Abramoff gain the title "REPUBLICAN Lobbyist"?

From what i've seen he's pandered to both sides about evenly.

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.

See the thread

THE LEFT TO DEMS: WE HATE YOU

I posted something that Byron York had found on KOS and put up on National Review Online's The Corner site.  It prompted a lot of posts speculating about the future of the dims, as we know them, and whether or not they will remain intact as a party (I'm speculating they won't others think it will go otherwise).  There's also discussion of the possible impact on 2006 elections.

The comment from KOS itself is amazing.  They truly are in melt down mode.

I was told that Rush mentioned the original KOS post, York's repost and the FR rerepost.  Woohoo!

warning - though "cleaned up" it's still obvious what foul language was meant by the original poster on KOS

warning 2 - some posts may cause explosive spewing of anything you might be drinking when you read them - any damage to your computer is your own problem

"Last fall liberals including Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Fox host Alan Colmes, and MSNBC pundit Ron Reagan all vocally criticized DeBrecht's book for teaching politics to children and portraying Clinton and Ted Kennedy as cartoon villains."

Interesting. Hillary, Colmes and Ron Reagan certainly have no problem teaching children about sex and particularly encouraging them to that sodomy is a source of "pride."

Why does the MSM keep referring to Abramoff as a "Republican lobbyist". He was a lobbyist. Money went to both parties.

Man, this is the best news I've heard in a long time. The Dims are actually IMPLODING! YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS UP!!

"Reports have surfaced that the former Vermont governor has prepared a Nixonian response by digging up dirt on Harry Reid, the Democrat's leader in the Senate. One DNC source is quoted in media reports as ominously saying that Dean's secret evidence on dealings by the Senator from Nevada makes "Jack Abramoff's lobbying work look like that of a rank amateur."

I believe the part that says: "the Senator from Nevada makes Jack Abramoff's lobbying work look like that of a rank amateur."   However, I don't believe the part stating Dean has this evidence. If Howard could find this supposed evidence, so could Republican operatives who actually have more money to discover it than does Dean.

I do have DeBrecht's hardcover edition of "Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed" on a coffee table and have had dozens quickly read it and snicker over cocktails.
