Liberal Myopia...

Kevin Drum in Washington Monthly lists 10 reasons why he thinks Democrats aren't getting votes they way they used to. Interesting the way Democrats see themselves. Some are pretty close to the mark (Too socially Liberal. Need to move to the center.), while others veer off into moonbat land (Too gutless. Need to get down in the gutter with Karl Rove and rip his lungs out).

But the comments left on the post are the most revealing:

"How about: there's nothing wrong with the Democrats, there's something wrong with Americans?"

"Too quick to spread their legs and enjoy it rather than attack."

"The public is beginning to catch on that the Republicans simply can't govern - they're too greedy, too focused on the individual (at the expense of the community) and they cannot see the critical importance of a strong and involved government that does the sorts of thing that the private sector can't or won't do."

"Come on Kevin! Its that the Republicans have convinced just enough voters of 1 and 4 and, oh, "that Democrats are just tax and spenders" and therefore it doesn't matter what the Democrats actually are, they are coming up just short in lections because of what republicans SAY that they are."

"Media only cares about sex/Monica. Let's Repukes get away with lies, from Gore to budget to war."

These are folks that will just never "get it".

For kicks, John Hawkins made a similar list for Republicans at Right-Wing News (he came up with 11)
