If one has observed, this a repeat of a pattern.  Crash the gates, start to work for Newsweek, and what more does one expect?  It's hard to be a Krugman in the face of success and the desire to accumulate wealth.

I agree with your post.  Look at the state of our country, politically and economically.  Imagine how much worse it would be if there were only "perceived" Republican ideas.  They are merely updated ways to deceive people to accept regressive ideas.  Solutions and progress lies with Democratic ideas, those that promote the many and not just the few.

Dailykos reminds me of George Orwell's Animal Farm.  I have that reaction very often! If you read Crashing the Gate with that in mind (I haven't read that book myself, though) it all makes sense.

I have read great posts and comments here and on Taylor Marsh's blog.  Eriposte is fabulous, as usual.  

Unfortunately, that reminds of a quote I once read.  From what I remember, Adlai Stevenson was told that he has the vote of all the thinking men. He replied, "That's not nearly enough, I need a majority."

The sentiment is true even in the blogsphere.
