When America Loses, Does Kerry Win?
Christopher Hitchens, in his Slate piece today, echos what Rush Limbaugh has been saying for years. The democrats are in the dispicable position of hoping for American failure so Bush will look bad and Kerry would look good by comparison.
Kerry's campaign has been doing poorly from the git-go. It's really doing poorly now and unless he can whoop up on the President big time in the debates, it's curtains for the Senator. How can this be? How many ways and how often have we been told that Kerry is soooooo intellectual, and cowboy Bush is so hopelessly bereft of nuance, he is barely able to complete a sentence.
Why can't the super intelligent left put together a winning campaign? And how can a flunky like Bush even get up in the morning.....
What is going on in the democrat party is the same thing that is and has been going on in the 'mainstream' media. They've been left behind and they haven't figured it out yet. The train has left the station and they are still milling around the lobby bar jawing about the dunderheads in 'flyover country.' That this is happening to both of them at the same time is no surprise because they've been promiscuously involved for the last 50 years.
The DNC and the Old Media will not, and in fact, cannot admit what the real problem is. They will do what they have always done and that is blame everyone else for being unenlightened and dimwitted. They're unable to take responsibility for their own shortcomings, because we're the ones with shortcomings, not them!
