I thought that would happen after the party was humiliated in the 2002 Congressional elections. That embarassment should have sent a message to the dims that they've verged too far left to connect with a majority of American voters. They should have recognized their mistakes, and in response brought their party towards the center. Instead, they took their party FURTHER left by hoisting up socialists like Nancy Pelosi and Tom Daschle, and then throwing the party's weight behind crackpot leftist presidential candidates like Howard Dean and John Kerry. The Democrats are moving so far left that they might as well run Castro as a nominee.

I think the only person that can save this party is Hillary Clinton. I'm looking forward to a 2008 presidential matchup between Condi Rice and Clinton, with the future of the Democtatic party hanging in the balance. If the Dims lose again, they may well become a fringe party like the Greens. A less Christian Conservative offshoot of the Republican party, or a Perot-like pro-business party will fill in the void.

What a wonderful day that will be.
