Losing Strategy Watch!
On losing strategy watch I will point out things democrats do to ensure that they will continue to be in the minority. Here is a post from Atrios Blog:
Atrio's wonders if John Kerry still thinks he's running for president....
In his attacks upon Washington, Mr. Kerry is adopting a puzzling strategy that could work for a governor but not for someone who is an entrenched member of the Washington elite. In Louisiana, the senator also repeated his disagreeable habit of pandering, telling his red state audience that Massachusetts Democrats should not install a plank endorsing gay marriage in the party's platform because it would be divisive. State Democrats should ignore that advice, and Mr. Kerry would have been wiser to point out that gay marriage has proved to be anything but divisive in Massachusetts.
