I was a mere youth at the time, but I don't remember Johnson being loathed for the "Great Society."

No, Johnson's aimless Vietnam policy is what brought on Nixon, then McGovern's total cave to the peaceniks crushed him.

Foreign policy, in war time, always trumps the economy. Just witness November 5.

No, the Democrats "tacking left" will lead them further into the wilderness. With Pelosi and Gore and Daschle at the helm, there's no way they can get to the right of Bush on the war on terror.

This article, itself, is a sign of desperation. "Try something, Democrats. Anything."

The pendulum doesn't inevitably swing left. It hasn't for fifty years.

Just posted this one:

Outside View: Minority Vision ( Democrats lose the Senate )

I'm afraid the election has also resulted in the Rebulicans shift to the left as well. With this new amnesty for illegal immigrants, Bush has shown he feels that he is free to abandon the conservative base that elected him. Tricked again. He IS his father, it seems.
