One Small, But Important, Point

Digby on the modern Republican Party:

It's all wrapped in the warped worldview I described above, in which the Democratic party is not just wrong, it's fundamentally illegitimate.

Operating under the belief that one must completely destroy one's opposing political party vs. the belief that one must win on policy and politics grounds are two very different things. I think the Dems are playing the latter game, much to their detriment.
