Adam Nagourney has a piece in today's NY Times in which Tony Coelho says the Democrats would be better off not winning the House and Senate. What? That's idiotic, you always win every seat you can when you can win it. The next time around might not be as easy.
Yes, you can look at the state of the nation and think, "Who would want to try to repair this?" But it is extremely crucial to put people in office that actually govern with the people's interest in their mind. An end must be brought to governance at the behest of special interests, and the sooner the better.
Our nation cannot wait until it is politically convenient for Democrats to have a stake in that governance.
One other thing, does Nagourney intentionally seek out Dems who say dumb things about the Democratic party? Or do they seek him out? I dunno.
