This editorial cannily predicted not just the decline of visitation at Daily Kos at the start of the same month in which the site smashed all previous records, but engaged in "grave-dancing" over the idea that Senator Obama's victories were the "last nail in the coffin" for Daily Kos. This insightful political sage argued that the young voters supporting Obama were foreshadowed in the election of Joe Lieberman despite Lieberman actually losing that same cadre of voters, and that Lieberman and Obama were two sides of the same coin. While bad editorials are common as dust and awful editorials are a plague on the ground, this kind of accomplishment has to be recognized. Ladies and gentlemen, for outstanding -- some might say superhuman -- efforts in the realms of self-aggrandizement, self-delusion, and spin, the award for Worst Editorial Achievement goes to political commentator Dan Gerstein. To immortalize this accomplishment, future recipients of this award will receive a "Golden Gerstein!" Take a bow, Dan.
