Democrats Still Plagued By Incompetence

By Ben Cohen

Matt Taibbi on the Democrat's amazing ability to screw it up, no matter how much of an advantage they have:

For almost two decades now, the Democrats have blazed up every

joint in sight, only to freeze at the crucial moment of inhalation.

Clinton kicked off two excruciating terms of Solomon-esque waffling

by splitting gays in the military right down the middle and ended

by only half-admitting to being swallowed whole by an intern named

Monica Lewinsky. Then came history's first three-base balk in

Florida (with James Baker waving Bush around to score), followed by

a senseless war in Iraq that Democrats thought to oppose only once

it became inexpedient to support.
