The Democratic Train Crash

The ongoing self imolation of the Democratic Party at a time when it has an opportunity to make real gains is like watching a train crash in slow motion. Peggy Noonan touches on that and other topics in a wide-ranging Wall Street Journal column in which, among other things, this conservative Republican takes President Bush to task for his piss-poor State of the Union speech.

Regarding the Democrats, Noonan says:
Republicans have crazies. All parties do. But in the case of the Democrats--the leader of their party, after all, is the unhinged Howard Dean--the lunatics seem increasingly to be taking over the long-term health-care facility. Great parties die this way, or show that they are dying.
I urge you read the whole column.
