If only more democarts "got it"...

"We're selling our party short; you've got to stand for a lot more than just blasting the other side," said Gov. Phil Bredesen of Tennessee. "The country is wide open to hear some alternatives, but I don't think it's wide open to all these criticisms. I am sitting here and getting all my e-mail about the things we are supposed to say about the president's speech, but it's extremely light on ideas."

I'm going to guess that in December we are going to be hearing a lot about how the democrats "failed to get their message out". Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
