"I'd rather avoid the political equivalent of Pickett's Charge. Fight smart AND hard, not just smart."

Unfortunately, I'm not sure Dubyuh is doing either...now, I hear Bush is outlawing off-shore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico!! Where is the Conservatism in Dubyuh's domestic agenda?

"The parable of the old bull and the young bull is perhaps the most instructive in this circumstance, IMHO."

We've only got 6.5 more years to get us some heffers, and only 2.5 if the Conservative Base gets much more frustrated at the abandonment of their principles.

The problem is, you had that party-switch by Jeffords, which turned everything around.

That, and a disappointing 2000 Senate performance (losing Abraham, Ashcroft, Roth, Grams and Gorton was quite bad for us, IMHO), had us in a bind. All the Dems had to do was find someone willing to knife the GOP in the back. That was Jeffords.

Right now, with that memo that ADMITS that Democratic attacks against the GOP re: Social Security are not true, it looks like the GOP is trying to force the Dems to over-reach and make a mistake. The media can't cover it all up, and that memo will be VERY useful in October. The Dems are much worse off than we are, IMHO. They're going to lose a fair amount of union and Hispanic votes IF we hold on AND don't panic.
